04Online support
How these approaches translate to online care
Yvonne uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, listening-based space where a person’s concerns guide the work. This approach helps clarify goals and makes it easier to talk about difficult topics without feeling judged.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift negative thought patterns that fuel anxiety or depression. CBT offers concrete exercises and homework that translate well to video or messaging formats so people can practice skills between sessions.
Finding the right method is a team effort. Yvonne will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and daily routine to decide which approach or combination will fit best. That collaborative process continues as progress is checked and plans are adjusted.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits brief check-ins, and messaging lets someone reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping treatment focused on practical skills and emotional regulation.
