Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Elizabeth Holden uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative space where the individual's goals and perspectives guide the work. This approach helps people build insight, increase self-esteem, and make changes that fit their values and life circumstances.

She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, and it can be effective for anxiety, depression, and managing daily stressors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are integrated when learning emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills is important. DBT skills support people who struggle with intense emotions or relationship conflicts by offering concrete tools to cope.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Elizabeth works with each person to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors methods that fit their situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy lives and varied schedules. These options can increase accessibility and help clients maintain continuity of care even when in-person visits are difficult.
