How these approaches work for online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to the person. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what she hears, and helps you set goals that feel right for you. This approach is useful for people who want a supportive space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and mood challenges by giving clear tools to use day to day.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It mixes strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. DBT-style tools can be helpful for anger, impulsive behavior, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they pick methods and adjust them as progress is made so the plan stays practical and relevant.
