Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Paloma draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused therapy to tailor care to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, collaborative relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and supports clients as they explore their values and goals - this approach helps with self-esteem, life transitions, and reconnecting with a sense of purpose. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences while building coping strategies to reduce their ongoing impact.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Paloma works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance supports gradual change and adapts as the client's priorities evolve.
Online therapy with Paloma can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, geographical constraints, and varied comfort levels with communication. Working with licensed professionals through these formats makes it possible to access consistent support and practical tools without commuting, and therapists can adapt session styles to suit conversational or skills-focused work depending on the client's preferences.
