Approaches That Guide Online Care
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person’s perspective and goals drive the work - it helps people gain insight and build confidence in their own decision making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that links thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and is often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, commonly applied in work around addictions and behavior change.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Misty Faella works with clients to identify which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques collaboratively rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access support from licensed professionals like Misty Faella when in-person sessions are not feasible, while allowing session styles to match individual comfort and practical needs.
