How his approaches guide online therapy
Client-centered therapy puts the person's goals and experience first. The therapist listens closely, follows what matters most to the client, and adjusts treatment to fit the person's needs. This approach is helpful when someone needs empathetic support and a plan built around their priorities.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and develop new behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with changes in life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match goals, symptoms, and personal preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.
