Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and the behaviors that follow. It is practical and skills-focused, often used to address anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns, and stress by teaching concrete strategies for changing responses to difficult situations.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clients' strengths and future goals, concentrating on small, achievable changes that build momentum. This approach can be especially useful for coping with life transitions, improving communication, and addressing relationship or career challenges by highlighting what is already working and expanding on it.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christy collaborates with each person to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to connect from home or other convenient locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult. Many people find this range of formats helpful for sustaining regular therapy and applying new skills between sessions.
