How these approaches shape online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with acceptance and following the person's lead. It helps people feel heard and decide what matters most to work on. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) adds emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for intense feelings and relationship stress.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different tools, and adjust methods based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist choose what fits their needs and preferences.
