Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and the emotional needs behind them. Online and remote sessions use that focus to help people notice how they connect or withdraw and practice different ways of relating during real life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to improve mood and function. In online sessions this often looks like setting simple practice tasks and reviewing results during the next meeting. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people respond to strong emotions and build more stable bonds; it can be useful when grief, jealousy, or relationship pain are central issues.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. Marianne will listen to a person's goals, daily challenges, and communication style before suggesting tools and strategies. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is helpful. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to get brief support, practice skills between sessions, or check in during a tough day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while still working with licensed professionals and a consistent therapist.
