Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Anna Allred draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and EMDR to tailor work to each person’s needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, empathic relationship and helping clients explore their feelings and values so they can make choices that align with their goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a method used to help process traumatic memories and reduce their ongoing emotional impact.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Anna collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adapts techniques over time as needs evolve and as progress becomes clear.
Online therapy offers greater flexibility for scheduling and access. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can engage in consistent work from home, during breaks, or while traveling, making it easier to maintain momentum and integrate therapeutic tools into daily life while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
