Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive relationship where the client leads the conversation and sets the pace. It can be especially helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening confidence when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and experimenting with practical ways to respond differently. It is often used to work through stress, anxiety, and depression by connecting thoughts, feelings, and everyday choices in a clear, structured way.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative approach that helps clients explore what matters most to them and work through ambivalence about change. It can be useful when motivation feels low, or when someone is trying to take the next step in a way that fits their values.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shanti Turner works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then adjusts the work together over time.
Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Clients can meet through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to get support in a format that fits real-life schedules and comfort levels.
