Evidence-Informed Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Prof. Vanessa Costello, LPC, draws from several structured approaches that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building practical skills to respond differently, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, low mood, and confidence concerns.Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative style that helps clarify goals and strengthen follow-through. It can be helpful when someone feels stuck, uncertain, or discouraged and wants support finding a workable next step. Trauma-Focused Therapy offers a paced, supportive way to explore how difficult experiences may still be affecting emotions, relationships, or day-to-day functioning, while building steadier coping tools along the way.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Prof. Costello works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want from therapy and to shape a plan that fits their needs, values, and preferences, including a Biblical Christian perspective alongside other modalities when desired.
Online therapy can make it easier to access consistent support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This flexibility can be a good fit for busy schedules, travel, or times when meeting in person feels hard to coordinate.
