Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to promote self-exploration and personal growth. This approach can be especially helpful for concerns like self-esteem, life transitions, and working through feelings such as guilt or shame.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and coping strategies for mood-related concerns.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotional experience and relational patterns, assisting individuals and couples in understanding and reshaping how they connect with others. It can be useful for relationship problems, intimacy-related issues, and patterns of attachment.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Susan works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they assess progress and adjust strategies to support meaningful change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility by letting clients meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make scheduling easier, allow continuity during life changes, and expand access to licensed professionals for people in different locations or with busy schedules.
