Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
John blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges and then suggest ways to proceed. Sessions may shift over time as needs change, and methods are adjusted to fit what is working for you.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that helps connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between meetings or use written reflection when that feels more comfortable. These options aim to make it easier to keep steady work on goals while fitting therapy into a busy life.
