Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Gwen integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and EMDR into her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s perspective guides the process - it is especially useful for building self-esteem and exploring identity or relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learn practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional impact, which can aid recovery from past traumatic events.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey, and Gwen emphasizes collaboration to determine what will best meet a person's goals, needs, and preferences. She will discuss options, track progress, and adjust the plan as therapy evolves.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, over the phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into a busy life or to continue work from different locations. These options help people access licensed professionals and therapists in ways that match their comfort level and scheduling needs.
