Therapeutic approaches and online care
Whitney draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so individuals feel heard and supported while exploring values and goals; it is helpful for building self-esteem, addressing loneliness, and clarifying life purpose. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and learning practical skills to change reactions and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression and improve day-to-day functioning.
Selecting the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Whitney works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods in a collaborative way so the treatment fits the individual's life and priorities.
Online therapy with Whitney is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options allow people to receive consistent support from licensed professionals without travel, making it easier to maintain progress and practice new skills between sessions.
