Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people can clarify what matters to them and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing strong emotions like anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Betsy will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then recommend a mix of methods that fit those needs. This collaborative process makes it easier to try strategies and adjust them over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face interactions when that is helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins and a way to communicate between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
