Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Antoinette Allen draws from several evidence-informed approaches to tailor work with each person. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and experiences, emphasizing empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help clients feel understood and to build self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical tools for symptoms like low mood, anxiety, or difficulties in relationships. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative conversational method that strengthens a person’s own motivation to change by exploring ambivalence and supporting self-directed goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Antoinette will work together with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, preferences, and objectives. This collaborative process allows approaches to be adapted over time as goals evolve. Working with licensed professionals and therapists online makes it easy to try different techniques and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Antoinette is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling, continuity of care during life transitions, and access for clients who live outside her immediate area. These options help clients maintain momentum between sessions and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them.
