Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Rhonda commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which translates easily to video or phone sessions where skill practice and homework can be reviewed. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and anxiety and can be guided in short exercises during a live call.She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find reasons to change and build confidence. That approach is conversational and collaborative, making it well suited to chat or messaging when someone needs gentle prompts between sessions. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as goals and needs become clearer.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer work and interactive skills practice. Phone calls are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging let people share updates, get brief coaching, or maintain momentum between live sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
