Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop practical strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns and focuses on skill building and behavioral experiments to produce measurable change.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings. It can help people reduce reactivity to stress, improve emotional regulation, and build tolerance for difficult sensations and emotions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying client strengths and small, achievable steps toward preferred outcomes. It is goal-oriented and useful for clients seeking concrete progress on relationship issues, life transitions, or specific problems.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Zakiya will work with each person to determine which strategies best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options offer scheduling flexibility, reduce travel time, and allow clients to engage in sessions from locations that work best for them while maintaining regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists.
