Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Jill Chestang draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-judgmental relationship in which the client’s experience leads the process - this approach helps people who need acceptance, validation, and space to explore values and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building new skills to change mood and behavior - it is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and practical problem solving.
Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work Jill does with each person. She will listen to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences and recommend strategies or combine methods that fit best, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions - whether video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules and those who prefer remote care. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access support from home, and try different formats to see what works best for each individual. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these approaches effectively in virtual settings to support meaningful change.
