How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what’s said, and helps people feel heard so they can work on practical changes. This approach is helpful for stress, relationship concerns, and emotional overwhelm.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses clear, skill-based exercises to test unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and addictive behaviors.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) aims to notice patterns in close relationships and the feelings that drive them. It supports clearer communication and safer connection, which can ease recurring fights and help people feel understood.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust as needed. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies are most helpful.
