Therapeutic approaches and online care options
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s perspective and building on their innate strengths. It helps individuals who want a collaborative, empathetic space to explore identity, self-esteem, relationship patterns, and life changes.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and practical problem solving by teaching skills to manage symptoms and promote healthier routines.
Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings. This approach can reduce reactivity to stress and support coping with grief, trauma reactions, and chronic worry.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Arianna works with clients to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she tailors techniques from these models to fit each person’s situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity between appointments, and access support from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who adapt methods to remote care.
