Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior and replace them with more effective strategies. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and practical coping challenges by focusing on concrete skills and structured exercises.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative conversation style that helps people explore their own reasons for change and build internal motivation. It can be especially useful for addressing ambivalence around habits, addictions, or major life decisions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clients' strengths and small, achievable steps toward their goals rather than dwelling on problems. This forward-looking approach is helpful for relationship concerns, coping with life transitions, and clarifying priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place over video, by phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit care into a busy life and access support from familiar surroundings.
