How evidence-based techniques fit into online therapy
Charles uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Cognitive approaches help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Behavioral strategies focus on changing routines and habits, useful for sleep problems, addictions, and managing anger.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Over time the plan can shift based on what is working and what the person wants to achieve.
