Online support

Using client-centered care with practical online tools

Amanda combines client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy to make talk therapy feel useful. Client-centered therapy means the person’s goals guide the work and the therapist listens without judgment to understand each person's story. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or panic.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy ideas when emotional regulation and strong reactions are a problem. DBT-based skills can help manage intense feelings, reduce impulsive behavior, and improve communication in stressful moments. Together these approaches give skills for coping now and planning for the future, with the client deciding which tools feel right.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for teaching skills, phone can fit someone with limited bandwidth, live chat offers a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. This variety aims to make the work fit into busy days and changing routines while keeping the focus on practical progress and collaboration.
