04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead to identify goals and strengths. In practice this means sessions emphasize empathy, validation, and working at the client’s pace to build trust and direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Online CBT often includes identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying small behavioral experiments, and practicing new skills between sessions to reduce anxiety, depression, or sleep problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. When used online, DBT-style work can teach grounding, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication that help with anger, self-harm urges, and relationship strain.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Janice will discuss goals, preferences, and what’s been tried before, then tailor techniques to fit the person. She adjusts methods over time based on what is and isn’t working.
Online sessions offer flexibility and make it easier to fit care into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face connection and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, homework, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people stay consistent and practice skills between appointments.
