How Chloe Uses Motivational Interviewing and CBT Online
Chloe uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT often focuses on concrete skills like coping strategies, managing anxiety, and improving mood through step-by-step practice.
She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who are unsure about change. This approach helps people weigh pros and cons, build motivation, and set realistic next steps, which can be useful for substance use and other habit changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chloe will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust techniques over time based on what is working and what feels manageable.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins during a work break or to use video or phone options when bandwidth or camera use is a concern.
