Client-centered and evidence-informed approaches for online care
Erin often combines client-centered principles with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address a range of concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist supports the client's own capacity for growth and self-understanding - this approach is helpful for self-esteem, relationship or family issues, and navigating life changes. ACT encourages acceptance of difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and taking committed actions toward those values - it is useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns that hold people back. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical skills for managing depression, anxiety, and many stress-related challenges.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Erin collaborates with each person to determine which methods feel like the best fit based on their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, over the phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging - allowing clients to fit care into busy schedules and to access licensed professionals from different settings. These options can make it easier to maintain consistency in treatment while using approaches that are tailored to individual concerns.
