How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Motivational Interviewing focuses on drawing out a person’s own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to help someone weigh options and build internal motivation, which can be useful for mood or behavior changes.
Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathic listening and understanding. The therapist follows the client’s lead, offering acceptance and gentle clarification to allow new insight to emerge, which helps when people feel stuck or overwhelmed.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It breaks problems into manageable steps and suggests practical exercises to try between meetings, helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties.
Brae treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, remove travel time, and let people participate when work or caregiving schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt the approaches above to work well in remote sessions. -
