How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the client's lead, helping people clarify goals and feel understood. This approach can help with low self-esteem, life transitions, and interpersonal stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new routines. CBT is often used for addictions, anxiety, and coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Deborah will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She evaluates progress and adjusts the plan as needed so the methods fit the client's situation.

The practical benefits of online sessions include easier scheduling and fitting therapy into busy days. Online options can reduce commute time and make shorter check-ins feasible.
