How therapy approaches work online

Rebecca commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-based ideas in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to test new ways of coping; this can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep troubles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions, which can be useful when addressing relationship patterns, attachment issues, or stress connected to caregiving.

She also works from a client-centered stance, which means the conversation centers on the person's goals and lived experience. Determining which approach or mix of approaches will work best is part of the process; the therapist and client decide together based on needs, preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skill practice and processing. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter interaction is preferred. Live chat and text messaging can fit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who do better with written communication. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
