Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Angela commonly blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify what matters to them, notice unhelpful thoughts, and try small behavior changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and creating a nonjudgmental space so clients can make their own choices about change. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.She also integrates elements of the Gottman Method when relationship skills are a goal; that approach concentrates on improving communication, reducing conflict patterns, and rebuilding connection through specific conversation skills. Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process - she will work with each person to match methods to goals, preferences, and the issues at hand rather than using a single technique for everyone.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let you work face-to-face when schedules allow. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and other daily demands.
