How these approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people can clarify their goals and values. This approach helps people who need space to make sense of what matters most to them.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to identify unhelpful thinking and to practice different responses. CBT is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem because it targets patterns that keep problems going.
Motivational interviewing helps people find and strengthen their own reasons for change. It uses conversational techniques to resolve mixed feelings and build momentum toward chosen goals. This can be useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she will recommend strategies and adjust them as progress is made so the plan fits the client's life.
