Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Rachael commonly uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, respectful space where the client s needs and goals guide the process; this approach helps with self-exploration, relationship concerns, and improving communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and is often effective for anxiety, depression, and attention-related challenges.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, focuses on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships, which can be especially helpful for couples, families, and issues around intimacy and attachment. Rachael draws from these approaches to tailor care to each person or family.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Rachael works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals from different locations.
