Approaches for online therapy and practical healing
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting and respectful partnership in which the therapist listens closely and supports clients in finding their own solutions - this approach is helpful for people seeking validation, self-understanding, and improved decision-making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day difficulties; it emphasizes practical skills and measurable steps toward goals. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing emotional impact, often used when past events continue to affect current functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Raker works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors interventions over time and checks in regularly to ensure the work remains aligned with the client’s aims.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing work to continue through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from one’s own community or across the state, while preserving the same therapeutic goals and evidence-based tools used in traditional care.
