How Breanne uses therapeutic approaches online

Breanne commonly draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-centered work focuses on listening carefully and helping the client set the pace so they feel heard and understood; it can help with relationship strain, self-esteem, and grief. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and some trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Breanne will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed. She emphasizes teamwork in deciding whether to try mindfulness practices, skill-based CBT exercises, motivational interviewing for change, or solution-focused steps to meet short-term goals.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and shorter commutes.
