How Carol’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead, helping the therapist respond to what matters most in a session. This approach supports issues like grief, depression, and relationship stress by building a trusting, collaborative process.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of feeling better. It breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches practical skills for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carol will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. That means trying techniques together and deciding what helps most.

Session format options were not listed in the biography, so confirm current offerings before booking. Online therapy can still make scheduling easier and reduce travel time, letting sessions fit into a work break or a busy day. It can also simplify brief check-ins when a quick adjustment or skill practice is needed. Licensed professionals can use virtual sessions to share worksheets, teach coping skills, and work through communication exercises much as they would in person.
