How therapy approaches adapt to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following a person's lead. Online sessions can still center the person's priorities with reflective conversation and collaborative goal setting.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, then practices new ways of responding. This approach transfers well to online work because tools like thought logs and behavioral experiments can be reviewed together and applied between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Skills teaching and coaching around specific situations translate into focused tasks and check-ins that fit into daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to choose or combine methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Goals and methods can shift as work progresses.
