Therapeutic approaches and online counseling

Laticia Bickham draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing to support people in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting clients where they are, offering empathy and collaboration so clients can explore values, strengths, and personal goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage stress, and address depression. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative approach that enhances motivation for change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal reasons for taking action.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Laticia works together with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what matters most to the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when people meet with licensed professionals. Whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, these options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, support ongoing progress between in-person visits, and maintain continuity of care across locations.
