Therapeutic Approaches That Fit Online Support
Rashad Slate, LMFT, draws from practical, goal-oriented methods that translate well to online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can clarify what they want and move at a pace that feels manageable. It can be helpful when stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship strain has started to feel overwhelming.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then practicing new ways to respond. CBT often works well for anxiety, depression, and stress, especially when clients want tools they can apply between sessions. Motivational Interviewing can also be useful in addiction-related work, helping clients explore ambivalence, strengthen motivation, and make changes that align with their values.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rashad collaborates with clients to understand what they are facing, what has worked before, and what they want to be different, then adjusts the style of therapy to match their goals and preferences.
Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to stay consistent, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and get support in a format that feels most comfortable.
