Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Brenda uses client-centered therapy to place the person at the heart of the work - this approach focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting individuals to identify their own solutions and strengths, which is helpful for issues like low mood, relationship concerns, and self-esteem. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that explores how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact and offers techniques for managing anxiety, stress, and depressive symptoms. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she employs to help people resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, which can be particularly useful for addictions and commitment-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brenda works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine techniques to tailor support, and Brenda adapts her style to suit what the client finds most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules, energy levels, and communication styles. This range of options makes it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, caregiving, or other commitments.
