Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Jessica Curd uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative, empathetic space where clients set the pace and goals of treatment; this approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore personal values, relationships, and life choices. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and motivation challenges. Additionally, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for clients coping with intense emotions or relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Curd works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies collaboratively as progress is made. Clients are involved in setting priorities and choosing techniques that feel useful and realistic.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, mobility limitations, or geographic constraints. These remote formats make it easier to maintain consistent care, access support between sessions, and fit therapy into daily life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to individual circumstances.
