How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's goals. It gives space for people to describe what matters and for the therapist to reflect and clarify so next steps become clear. This approach can help when someone feels unheard or needs to sort through competing priorities.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and offers practical techniques for anxiety, depression, and stress related to family life. Motivational interviewing supports change by exploring a person's own reasons for wanting something different and building motivation for action.
Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative work. Christie will help assess needs, goals, and preferences and then try approaches that fit those aims. That may mean trying brief solution-focused steps one week and skill-building from CBT the next, based on progress and feedback.
