Approaches that translate to online work
Client-centered therapy prioritizes what the client brings to each session and adapts to their goals. It helps people feel heard and keeps therapy focused on their immediate concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to spot and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or depression. It often uses short exercises between sessions to practice new ways of thinking.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive actions. Mindfulness techniques are sometimes used alongside these approaches to help with grounding and staying present during difficult moments. Together, these methods offer skills-based work that fits many common concerns like stress, anger, and low self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of the first steps in therapy. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose tools that match goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques early on and adjusting as the client notices what helps.
