Approaches in Online Therapy and How They Help



Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens carefully and reflects the client's experience. It helps people who need support in exploring feelings, building self-understanding, and making personal decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to problems like anxiety, depression, and stress. It is practical and skill-based, helping clients develop tools to manage symptoms and respond differently to difficult situations.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It is especially useful for individuals who struggle with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or impulsive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the individual.

Online sessions using video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility and wider access to care. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and connect with licensed professionals from different locations.
