How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what matters, and helps the person clarify goals and values. This approach helps with motivation and self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce worrying, improve sleep, and change unhelpful patterns that feed anxiety or depression.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name emotions and improve emotional connection in close relationships. It can be useful for intimacy-related worries and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rebecca will discuss options, try things out, and adjust methods based on what helps the client meet their goals. That collaborative process guides whether the focus is skills practice, emotional processing, or exploring life patterns.

Many people find online therapy easier to fit into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or make it simpler to attend when schedules are tight.
