How these approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. Online sessions using this approach center the conversation on what matters most to the person and help set goals that fit their life.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and sharpen focus. These techniques can be practiced during video or phone sessions and integrated into daily routines to manage stress and ADHD-related distraction.
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and commit to small steps. In remote sessions this looks like questions, reflections, and collaborative planning that help someone move from thinking about change to taking action.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or adapt methods based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and practicing skills together. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit quick reflections, check-ins between sessions, and people who prefer written communication. These formats make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives.
