How Marlo’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects understanding, and helps shape sessions around what matters most to the client. This approach is helpful when someone wants a supportive space to clarify values and direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It often involves short exercises and homework to change thinking patterns tied to anxiety, depression, or stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication for intense emotions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on the client's goals and preferences. That means sessions can shift toward skills practice, trauma processing, or value-based work as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people work face-to-face when they prefer that format. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit during short breaks. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and use therapy in everyday life.
