Therapeutic Approaches Online and How They Help
Barbara blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness practices to support change. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and helps clients identify what matters most to them - this approach can be especially useful for building self-esteem and navigating life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on recognizing and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It offers practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and attention-related challenges by developing clearer routines and problem-solving skills.
