Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Christine DeHart uses several evidence-informed approaches to help people navigate emotional and relational concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns influence feelings and behavior - it can help with intimacy issues, trust, and relationship cycles. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s perspective at the center of treatment, offering an empathetic, nonjudgmental space to explore goals, values, and personal strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by teaching practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christine collaborates with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adapts techniques from these modalities to create a plan that fits the individual’s life. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in decision making and focused on meaningful outcomes.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - Christine provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, manage accessibility barriers, and practice new skills between sessions with guidance from a licensed professional.
