Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's own goals and strengths, offering a supportive, non-judgmental environment where people can explore values, build self-awareness, and increase motivation for change. This approach is helpful for issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns, and adjusting to life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and their effect on behavior and mood. By practicing new ways of thinking and concrete skill-building, CBT can assist with anxiety, depression, panic, and substance-use related challenges.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional regulation. It can be especially useful for stress management, chronic worry, and improving focus.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Steven, as a licensed professional, works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may adapt techniques over time so therapy remains responsive and relevant.
Online therapy with Steven offers flexibility and access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit care into a busy life, maintain continuity when schedules change, and receive timely support between in-person opportunities. Licensed professionals and therapists use these modalities to provide consistent, practical treatment that accommodates different circumstances and preferences.
