Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support and Growth
Mackenzie integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address emotional and relational concerns in an online setting. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and can help with attachment issues, relationship difficulties, and trauma responses. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room, prioritizing empathy and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported as they identify their own goals and solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mackenzie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and circumstances evolve, ensuring care aligns with what matters most to the client.
