Online support options

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. The therapist reflects what the client shares and helps them find their own solutions, which fits well into conversations by video or phone. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thought patterns and test new behaviors. It uses clear steps and small experiments that clients can practice between sessions, making it a strong match for both video and messaging work.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Paulette will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She often blends approaches, checking in about what helps and adjusting plans as work progresses so clients feel involved in shaping therapy.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for in-depth conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or step-by-step problem solving between longer sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent while fitting care into everyday life.
