Therapeutic approaches for effective online support

Lorraine draws on client-centered therapy to place the individual's experience at the heart of the work - she listens for each person's priorities and helps shape goals that feel meaningful and manageable, which can be especially helpful for relationship and family concerns.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and introduce concrete strategies for change; this approach often supports progress with anger issues, addictions, and coping with life changes. Additionally, motivational interviewing is used to strengthen internal motivation for change, making it a practical fit for clients working through substance use or ambivalence about major decisions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lorraine collaborates with each client to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time to match progress and changing circumstances.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility concerns, and they make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life is busy or transitions occur. Working online enables therapists and licensed professionals to provide consistent support in formats that suit the client’s routine and comfort.
