Approaches that guide online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, empathetic space where the person leads the conversation and the therapist offers understanding and acceptance. This approach helps with self-esteem, grief, relationship concerns and finding clarity during life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-focused and can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress and many day-to-day challenges.
Solution-Focused Therapy is brief and goal oriented, concentrating on strengths, resources and achievable steps toward desired changes. It suits people looking to solve specific problems or cope with changes in work, family or personal life.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Saira will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences and will adjust the work as progress is made.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life and makes it easier for people to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options allow continuity of care and practical ways to engage with therapy that suit individual routines and comfort levels.
