Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support and Healing
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape emotional patterns and interpersonal trust. In online work this approach helps clients explore attachment needs, address abandonment or closeness concerns, and improve connection in intimate relationships.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client’s own goals. In this approach the therapist follows the client’s lead, supports self-exploration, and helps rebuild self-esteem and personal agency, which can be especially helpful for people coping with grief, low confidence, or life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT techniques can assist with stress, anxiety, panic symptoms, and mood-related difficulties by teaching skills to manage reactions and build healthier habits.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shagufta works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor therapy to each person’s circumstances and priorities.
Online therapy with licensed professionals provides flexibility to meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
