Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel understood and guides conversations toward the topics they find most important. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. These approaches are commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.Patricia uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and solution-focused techniques to identify practical next steps. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that fit goals, current concerns, and personal preferences.
