Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore their feelings and values. This approach emphasizes the person's own experience and supports self-directed growth, often helping with issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and ADHD-related challenges.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies to teach skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be especially useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and patterns of impulsive behavior.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Amy will collaborate with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life or to access care from different locations. Licensed professionals can deliver the same core techniques used in face-to-face therapy, adapted to these formats to support continuity and accessibility of care.
