Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Aquinetta Nelson integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for each person’s perspective - it helps when someone needs a supportive space to explore feelings, values, and relationship dynamics. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, and it is often used to address anxiety, low mood, and stress-related difficulties.

She also draws on motivational interviewing to support clients who are ambivalent about change; this approach uses open questions and reflective listening to strengthen motivation and clarify goals. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Aquinetta works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Aquinetta is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists from home or on the go while supporting consistent, ongoing care that fits each person’s life.
