Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Erin draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing to guide online work in ways that match each client's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an empathetic, nonjudgmental environment where the client leads the pace and topics of change and feels heard and respected - this approach can be helpful for building trust after trauma or during grief.

CBT is a structured, skills-based method that helps people identify and shift patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to depression, anxiety, and stress. It often involves practical tools and exercises that clients can use between sessions. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps clients explore their own reasons for change, which can be especially useful for substance use and ambivalence about treatment.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Erin works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and therapists can also support clients through live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to access care around work, family, and daily demands.
