How Therapeutic Approaches Translate to Online Care
Valerie Pacheco integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and building a respectful, collaborative relationship so clients can explore their own goals and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, stress, and relationship conflict. Mindfulness therapy is also used to help clients develop present-moment awareness, which can ease reactivity and support emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Valerie partners with clients to assess their needs, preferences, and goals, and together they determine which combination of methods fits best. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what will be most helpful for each person.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter interactions are possible through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit consistent therapeutic work into a busy life, support steady progress over time, and maintain connection with licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location.
