Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Care Online
Anita integrates client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing to support change in an online setting. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps identify personal strengths and goals - this approach is often helpful for relationship concerns, life transitions, and building self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress or mood difficulties and works toward practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that strengthens a person’s own motivation to change, which can be particularly useful for addictions and readiness-related challenges.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Anita works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques over time and checks in regularly to adjust direction based on progress and comfort.
Online therapy with Anita is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they allow clients to access licensed professionals from their own communities.
