Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Theresa Connelly, LCSW, draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, respect, and collaboration, helping clients clarify what they are feeling and what they want to change, especially during stressful seasons, grief, or major life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) supports clients in noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then practicing practical strategies that can reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem concerns, and workplace stress. Mindfulness Therapy can also be helpful for building steadier attention and learning how to respond to difficult emotions with more balance, rather than feeling pulled into them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Theresa works collaboratively with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful right now, adjusting the focus as needs evolve over time.

Online therapy offers flexible options for fitting care into real life. Sessions may take place through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can also use live chat or text-based messaging, which can be especially helpful for ongoing support between scheduled appointments.
