Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and improving day-to-day coping. The Gottman Method focuses on relationship patterns and communication; it offers concrete tools for couples to improve understanding, resolve conflict, and rebuild connection. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people find internal motivation to make changes, which can be useful for areas like parenting goals, impulsivity, or life-direction concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Keniēsha works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time so the work stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Keniēsha can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit busy schedules and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across life changes and to receive support from home or while traveling, while allowing licensed professionals to tailor sessions to the format that works best for each client.
