Approaches that translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead, helping people feel heard and respected while they decide what to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try small experiments to shift unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce reactivity and improve focus in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then use a mix of methods that feel most useful. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and challenges become clear.
