Online support
How Lisbeth Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s concerns and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping them name goals and decide what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior that increase distress and teaches clear skills to shift those patterns and try new responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisbeth collaborates with each person to test what helps and adjust the plan. Together they pick techniques that fit the client’s goals, comfort level, and daily life rather than using one fixed method.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for fuller conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing reflection and quick touch-ins between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep progress moving forward.
