Approaches that translate to online care
Susan uses client-centered approaches that focus on the person’s priorities. This means the conversation follows what matters most to the client and the therapist helps reflect, validate, and set goals that feel realistic for daily life.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another. CBT offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides practical skills for regulating intense emotions and managing crisis moments, with short, usable techniques for coping day to day.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify which methods fit your needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as you go. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the work stays relevant and useful.
