Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and encouragement. This approach helps people build self-understanding, increase self-esteem, and gain confidence as they work through personal challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to difficulties and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is often used to address anxiety, stress, low mood, and unhelpful coping strategies, offering concrete tools to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Annie will work collaboratively with each client to explore which methods feel most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling and makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options help connect clients with licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel, supporting continuity of care across different locations and circumstances.
