Approaches you can use in online sessions

Client-centered work starts by listening to what matters most to the client and shaping sessions around their goals and strengths. This approach helps when someone needs support that fits their unique situation rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, stress, and workplace worries.

Mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to notice the body and breath, reduce reactivity, and return attention to the present moment. These practices can be useful for managing stress, improving focus, and reducing social anxiety symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and daily routines and then pick methods together. The process is collaborative and may blend approaches as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat offers a short written check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing, brief contact between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around school, work, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical change.
