Attachment and CBT approaches in online care



Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection formed early in life and how those patterns affect current relationships. It helps clients understand attachment needs and build more secure ways of relating to others, which can be useful for abandonment, relationship, and family issues.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s perspective and fosters a supportive, nonjudgmental space where people lead the pace of their work. This approach emphasizes empathy and collaboration to help clients explore identity, self-esteem, and personal goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, stress, and depressive symptoms. It is often used alongside other approaches to create tools for everyday coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Darian will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals, including therapists, often combine techniques to tailor care to the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or manage therapy across distances. These options increase accessibility and allow clients to engage in consistent, ongoing work in ways that feel most comfortable to them.
