Approaches for Change in Online Therapy



Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive environment where the client’s own goals and perspectives guide the work. This approach helps people increase self-awareness, make choices that fit their values, and build confidence in their decision-making.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It provides practical tools to identify unhelpful patterns, develop alternative ways of thinking, and practice new coping skills for anxiety, mood shifts, and stress.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable changes and practical solutions rather than lengthy exploration of problems. It can be especially useful for clients who want to set clear goals and see measurable progress in a shorter time frame.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sheila will work with each client to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to fit care into busy schedules, connect from different locations, and choose communication formats that feel most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
