Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful space where the client’s goals guide the work. It can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions, offering room to clarify what matters most and build momentum at a sustainable pace.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how earlier experiences and relationship patterns may still shape emotions, choices, and communication today. This approach can be useful for concerns like relationship difficulties, attachment issues, depression, and feeling stuck in repeating cycles.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach often used with trauma and distressing memories. It helps clients process difficult experiences in a way that can reduce how emotionally intense those memories feel over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Lisa Cooney collaborates with clients to choose a direction that fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy also makes it easier to stay consistent. Clients can meet through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, bringing professional support to everyday life with added flexibility and accessibility.
