Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Holly Bankston draws from evidence-informed approaches that can help clients understand patterns, build workable coping strategies, and strengthen relationships over time.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It helps clients identify unhelpful thinking loops and practice new responses, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult internal experiences while taking steps toward what matters most. It often supports people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or pulled off course by worry or self-criticism. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on emotions and connection, helping individuals and couples better understand underlying needs and create more responsive communication patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Holly works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals and preferences, then adjusts strategies to fit what is most helpful and sustainable for each person.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to get support around a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care from wherever it is most convenient.
