Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Felicia uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative atmosphere in which the client’s perspective guides the pace and goals of work. This approach focuses on empathy, respect, and supporting each person to identify and pursue meaningful changes in relationships, self-esteem, and life transitions.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping strategies. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving around daily challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful when emotions feel intense or relationship patterns cause recurring difficulty.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. A licensed professional will work collaboratively with each client to determine what methods fit best based on needs, goals, and personal preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or mobility needs. These options allow continued access to therapy from different settings while still using structured techniques, skill practice, and ongoing support from a therapist.
