Approaches that translate to online support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's pace. It helps people feel heard and build confidence to try new ways of coping.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood. It teaches concrete strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress through practice and homework.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change as progress is made and new challenges come up.
