How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a respectful relationship. It helps people feel heard and make choices that fit their values and goals.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping after trauma.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It includes skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation that many people find useful in day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terry will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a shared process that may change as progress is made.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing commute time and allowing appointments during breaks or from different locations. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, please confirm the available options before booking. The therapist can help decide how best to use online visits for skill practice, check-ins, or deeper work depending on your needs.
