Approaches that guide online therapy
Erin Taylor uses several established therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals and experiences guide the work; it helps when someone needs validation, empathy, and a collaborative atmosphere. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns through structured techniques and behavioral experiments. Mindfulness therapy introduces simple awareness and grounding practices that reduce reactivity and support coping with stress, trauma reminders, and intense emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Erin works collaboratively with each person to explore preferences, goals, and symptoms, then adapts methods to fit what is most helpful. This collaborative stance helps ensure treatment feels relevant and targeted to individual needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or other obligations. For many people, these options increase access to consistent care and allow work on therapeutic skills in the contexts where challenges arise, all while connecting with licensed professionals and therapists who guide the process.
