How his approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to the person's experience and following their goals. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to sort through feelings, make choices, or strengthen what already works in daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and practical homework to reduce anxiety, shift negative thinking, and change patterns that contribute to stress or depression.
Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and how each approach might help. Together the client and therapist decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what is most helpful.
