Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Laura Wagner draws from several practical, person-centered methods that can work well in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, helping clients feel heard while they explore stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions at a pace that feels manageable.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an approach that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT can be especially helpful for identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, building coping skills, and practicing new responses to everyday triggers. Motivational Interviewing is another supportive approach that helps clients explore ambivalence and strengthen their own reasons for change, which can be relevant for concerns like addictions or shifting long-standing habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Laura works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked in the past, then adjusts the focus over time to better match what they need.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to fit support into a busy week, keep momentum between sessions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable on any given day.
