How these approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person first. It helps people feel heard and shape goals that matter to them, which is useful for relationship or self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It teaches practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by changing unhelpful thoughts and actions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people notice and express core emotions and strengthen important connections. It is often used for relationship and intimacy issues where understanding feelings matters.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Corey will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, comfort level, and daily life. The plan can change as progress is made and priorities shift.

Confirm current session options before booking to learn how sessions are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about formats and scheduling when starting so sessions can be arranged to match practical needs.
