Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Barbara often blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when working online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathic, accepting relationship so people can explore their values, choices, and goals; it is particularly helpful for grief, life transitions, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem solving. Barbara also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to support emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for clients who struggle with intense emotions or relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Barbara collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as circumstances change. This collaborative stance helps tailor treatment to what works in a client's life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, make it easier to maintain continuity between sessions, and allow licensed professionals and therapists to deliver the same core strategies and practical exercises used in person.
