Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Steve Barber uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing to support people in an online setting. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting, non-judgmental relationship so clients can explore their own goals and strengths; it is often helpful for relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. CBT is a practical, structured approach that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop concrete strategies for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their motivation for change, which can be especially useful for addictions and behaviour change.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Steve works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts the work as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging allow clients to choose formats that suit their schedules and comfort. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family and other commitments, and enable therapists and licensed professionals to deliver focused, effective support across different communication styles.
