Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used for issues like anxiety, mood challenges, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches strategies for present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings. These practices can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation when stress or strong emotions arise.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people explore and resolve ambivalence about change. It can be particularly useful for addictions and situations where building internal motivation is important.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lynda Harkins works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care across locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals can deliver the same core therapeutic work through these channels, focusing on practical benefits and accessibility while tailoring the experience to each client.
