How Sandra Uses CBT and Client-Centered Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, offers empathy, and helps people make sense of their feelings and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that get in the way. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on goals and small steps that move a person toward those goals.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Sandra will talk with a person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they choose methods to try and adjust them as needed so the work fits the person's life and priorities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face even when travel is difficult. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
