Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Jessica often uses client-centered work that focuses on the person’s goals and experience. That means the conversation guides what happens next and the therapist follows the client’s concerns to set practical steps. Client-centered work helps with motivation, self-esteem, relationship stress, and figuring out next steps.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT gives specific exercises and skills to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and change unhelpful habits. When trauma is a central issue, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing can be part of the plan to address distressing memories and reduce their impact on daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is made. That way therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are good for shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions, or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep continuity across changes in routine.
