Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions with Jon Collings
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented approach that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for stress, anxiety, depression, and problems that respond to skill-building and structured practice. Psychodynamic Therapy, also called insight-oriented work, explores recurring patterns, early influences, and emotional themes that shape relationships and self-perception, which can be helpful for intimacy issues, codependency, and longstanding relational difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jon Collings works collaboratively with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, and to adjust methods over time so the work fits each person’s situation and pace. Licensed professionals often blend methods to best support change and understanding.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work - from video calls and phone sessions to live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care when in-person visits are challenging, while still allowing therapists to guide skill development and insight-focused exploration.
