Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Eliza Niemann commonly draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy in her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on the individual's perspective, with the therapist offering empathy and support so the person can explore values, build self-esteem, and find their own solutions - this approach is useful for life transitions, self-love work, and improving communication. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often effective for stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention practices to reduce rumination and increase coping capacity, which can be helpful with grief, anxiety, and ongoing stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Eliza works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve. Licensed professionals and therapists can combine elements from these approaches to create a tailored plan.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to access care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and engage in ongoing work from different locations, while preserving the collaborative, skill-building focus of in-person therapy.
