Client-Centered Care and CBT for Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and supporting a person’s own capacity for growth. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects feelings and concerns, and helps create space for self-exploration - a helpful approach for clients facing identity questions, relationship concerns, or emotional overwhelm.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, or mood difficulties. It offers concrete strategies and exercises to help shift unhelpful patterns and build coping skills, which can be useful for sleep problems, anxiety, and mood-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Sky Ross will work with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses. Licensed professionals often blend elements from different approaches to match what is most useful for the client.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support from different locations. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, allow clients to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable, and can help maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not practical.
