Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Dr. Jerome Anderson uses a blend of well-established approaches to guide online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experiences, with the therapist providing empathy and support to help clients explore feelings, improve self-understanding, and strengthen coping resources. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is practical and goal-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and stress-management skills, which can help with emotional regulation, rumination, and chronic stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Anderson works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then combines methods or adjusts strategies so the plan fits the individual’s circumstances. That partnership helps keep work focused and relevant.
Online therapy with a licensed professional offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone accommodate schedules, while live chat and text-based messaging provide additional ways to connect between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support during life changes, and integrate therapeutic work into a busy routine.
