Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Carole uses client-centered therapy to make sessions focused on the person’s needs and values. That means the conversation follows what matters most to the client, with the therapist offering support and reflection to help people find their own solutions.

She also uses trauma-focused therapy when past events are affecting current life. This approach helps process difficult memories and reduce their hold on daily functioning. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and replace it with practical, testable habits that can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Carole will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, comfort level, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Plans are adjusted over time based on progress and feedback.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth work and visual connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports short check-ins, and messaging lets people send updates between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work schedules, caregiving demands, or other daily responsibilities.
