Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Tonya Parrish uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful and empathetic space where the client's experiences and goals guide the work. This approach helps individuals who need support processing emotions, building self-esteem, and making sense of life changes by prioritizing their values and perspectives.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that explores links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT is helpful for addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning by teaching concrete skills to reframe thinking and change responses.
Motivational Interviewing is another tool she uses to support people ambivalent about change, particularly in areas like addictions or behavior change. This technique helps clients clarify their own reasons for change and boosts internal motivation through collaborative conversation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tonya Parrish works together with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and some work can continue through live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to schedule care around work, family, and life commitments.
