How therapy approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful dialogue where the client leads the topics and goals. This approach helps people clarify what matters to them and create personally meaningful steps forward.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday coping tasks that affect mood and functioning.
EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact. It is often used when past events continue to cause strong reactions in the present.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and needs, then try methods that fit. Sessions often shift over time as progress and priorities change, and Dustie will help decide what to focus on together.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when that helps, and offer alternatives if travel or scheduling is difficult. Ask about the available session formats when you schedule to find what suits your routine.
