Approaches that guide online therapy and support

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person seeking help, allowing clients to set the pace and priorities while the therapist offers empathy and reflective listening. This approach is helpful for building self-awareness, strengthening self-esteem, and addressing relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and for developing practical coping skills that can reduce day-to-day distress.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps partners and family members better understand and respond to emotional needs, making it useful for resolving attachment and intimacy-related issues and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Betsy Narveson works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. She adapts techniques when needed so therapy remains focused and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to connect from home or work. These options allow ongoing access to care, help maintain continuity during life changes, and let therapists and clients coordinate a format that feels most comfortable and practical.
