Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kelly McBride uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where a person’s own goals and experiences guide the work. This approach emphasizes understanding individual perspectives and building on strengths to address issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

She also employs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, and it can be effective for managing anxiety, mood difficulties, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kelly collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what is most useful for the individual.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to engage consistently while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and communication style, allowing therapists and licensed professionals to maintain a steady therapeutic relationship even when meeting in person is difficult.
