Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Robin Smith uses several practical approaches that translate well to online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people recognize patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches concrete skills to shift those patterns - it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own experience and goals, offering empathy and support while the client guides the pace and focus of sessions - this approach supports self-understanding and personal growth. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, nonjudgmental method for strengthening a person’s motivation to change and clarifying goals, which can be especially helpful for addictions, ambivalence about change, or building commitment to new behaviors.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Robin works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan over time to support progress.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility - it makes it easier to schedule sessions, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from home or work. Licensed professionals can deliver effective, skills-focused work in these formats while tailoring interaction style and techniques to each person’s comfort and routine.
