Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care
Lucinda Rhoads integrates several therapeutic approaches that translate well to remote sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections - this approach helps people address abandonment, attachment issues, and difficulties in close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, works by identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, panic, and low self-esteem, offering practical tools clients can apply between sessions. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity when appropriate for the client.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Lucinda collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and tailors techniques accordingly, so the path forward fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how care is delivered. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions provide accessibility when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can support check-ins and ongoing processing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and maintain continuity of care across changing schedules.
