How Rachel’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered work focuses on the person’s priorities and values. Online sessions let clients name goals and pace the work while the therapist follows their lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers clear, practical strategies to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In virtual sessions these strategies turn into homework exercises and short skill practices to try between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, which can be practiced during short moments across the day.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rachel will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts techniques over time so therapy stays useful and manageable.
