Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the client’s own experience and priorities, creating a collaborative, empathetic space where the person’s goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and mood difficulties. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often used when past events continue to affect present functioning.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Many people benefit from combining approaches, and adjustments are made as therapy progresses to ensure the best fit.



Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. These options can support continuity of care and let people access licensed professionals and therapists from the comfort of their own environments while maintaining regular contact and progress toward their goals.
