How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead. Online sessions using this approach still center the client's goals and feelings, and the therapist reflects back what matters most to you.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online work CBT can include tracking thoughts, trying small behavioral experiments, and reviewing practical homework between sessions to reduce anxiety or lift mood.
Mindfulness techniques teach simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. These practices can be guided in session and practiced between meetings to help with stress, anger, and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of methods to try. Adjustments are made together if something does not fit or if priorities change.
