Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Carin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is goal-oriented and practical - it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and situations where changing daily patterns can reduce distress. Solution-Focused Therapy is another approach Carin uses to highlight strengths and small, actionable steps toward change. This method concentrates on what is working and builds brief, measurable goals to move clients toward preferred outcomes.Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Carin works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then tailors techniques from these models to fit each person’s life. The therapeutic plan evolves as progress is made, with ongoing discussion about what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access care from different locations. These options support consistent contact, timely check-ins, and a range of communication styles so clients can choose how they prefer to work toward their goals.
