Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Tracy Ward integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental stance and prioritizes the client’s perspective, helping people feel heard as they explore relationship dynamics, self-esteem, and personal values. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical strategies for managing mood, motivation, and coping skills. Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences and abuse by helping clients process difficult memories and develop tools to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Tracy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current needs. She adjusts her style and techniques over time so the plan evolves with the client’s progress.
Online therapy with Tracy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity during life changes, access care across distances, and choose the format that best supports personal growth and healing.
