04Online support
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist, using the client’s own goals and values to guide change. It helps people feel heard and builds a plan that fits their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhealthy behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people identify and change painful interaction patterns in relationships by focusing on underlying emotions and attachment needs.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they can try an approach and adjust as needed so the work fits the person’s life and relationships.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people practice new communication skills while seeing expressions. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins, homework discussion, and consistent contact between sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy days.
