Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care
Karen Slaton integrates practical, evidence-based methods into online therapy to help clients address a range of concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward meaningful goals - it can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that feel limiting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental stance so clients can explore their experiences and build self-understanding; this approach supports grief work, relationship issues, and identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches concrete strategies to shift those patterns, making it a common choice for depression, anxiety, and addiction-related challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Karen works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time, adjusting strategies as clients make progress and as needs evolve.
Online therapy with Karen includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These modalities make it easier to maintain consistent care, access support from home, and fit sessions into everyday life while working with a licensed professional who guides the process.
