Practical approaches for online therapy

Eric uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and respect so clients can set the pace and direction of their work together. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build awareness of thoughts and sensations and to reduce reactivity in stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked in the past. Together they choose techniques and adjust the plan over time so the work feels meaningful and doable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, working through exercises between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
