Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client is the expert on their own life. The therapist listens deeply and helps individuals explore values, feelings, and goals, which is useful for relationships, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and coping with stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be particularly helpful for intense emotions, anger, and challenges in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Deborah Way collaborates with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and greater access to support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and receive consistent care from licensed professionals and therapists without needing in-person visits.
