Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective and building a trusting therapeutic relationship. This approach emphasizes empathy and respect and is helpful for people seeking support with self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is commonly used for depression, anxiety, stress, and mood-related concerns and offers practical tools for coping and symptom management.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that supports people who are ambivalent about change. It is often used to address substance use, readiness for behavior change, and commitment to treatment goals by exploring motivation and enhancing personal reasons for change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dolores works together with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time as priorities and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and access, making it easier to attend sessions from different locations. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent care while accommodating work, family, and mobility needs, helping people maintain progress even when life is busy or changing.
