How Anne’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, helps clarify goals, and supports changes the client wants to make. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when strong emotions get in the way of daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This shared decision-making helps shape sessions that match the client’s needs and preferences.
Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets clients use skills learned in real time and practice strategies between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches so the work feels relevant and practical for everyday life.
