Background and approach

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects feelings, and helps clarify goals to make sessions feel relevant and human.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. It teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for issues like anxiety, depression, and anger.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. It offers step-by-step techniques for impulsivity, regulation, and relationship challenges.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, test techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients have a say in the pace and focus of work together.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video can approximate an in-person visit, phone may be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to try different formats to see what works best.
