Attachment, Person-Centered Care, and CBT Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape patterns of trust, closeness, and separation. It helps people understand relational dynamics and repair or reconfigure patterns that cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience, offering a nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s pace and priorities to build insight and self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to manage mood, anxiety, and stress-related symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lavanniya works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches or combination of methods fit best based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity when schedules change, and connect with a licensed professional from different locations, while preserving the therapeutic focus and supportive relationship that drive meaningful work.
