Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

John Wood draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy to tailor online treatment to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, accepting atmosphere where the individual leads the conversation and explores personal goals and values - it is helpful for improving self-esteem, relationships, and emotional insight.

CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to change them. It is commonly used for anxiety, stress, motivation, and mood-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches focused awareness and present-moment skills that support regulation of stress, reduction of rumination, and improved emotional balance.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and John works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. He adapts techniques over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access support from home or other locations. These options can increase consistency of care and make it simpler to practice skills between sessions with guidance from a therapist.
