Integrating Therapeutic Approaches Into Online Care
Nancy often draws from Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shape online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and listening, helping people explore their feelings and build self-understanding so they can make choices that align with their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to reduce stress and improve mood and functioning.
She approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right method is part of the therapeutic process. Nancy works with each person to weigh options, adjust approaches over time, and select techniques that match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances so therapy feels relevant and doable.
Online therapy modalities such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. These options can make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and to continue therapeutic work during life transitions, while allowing therapists to tailor pacing and tools to what works best for each individual.
