How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. It helps people clarify their priorities and feel understood before deciding on steps to take.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and relationship habits.
Mindfulness therapy offers simple practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These practices can be short and practical, useful when stress or overwhelm makes it hard to think clearly.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around work or caregiving duties.
