Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Licensed Clinical Social Worker Beverly Pautz combines practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients address immediate concerns and build lasting skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life transitions by teaching specific strategies to manage symptoms and shift responses. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on strengths and concrete goals, helping people quickly identify small, achievable changes that lead to meaningful progress, which can be especially useful for relationship issues, problem-solving, and short-term goals.

Beverly works collaboratively with each person to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes a team-oriented process in which the therapist and client adapt plans over time to find what helps most.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and limited local access to specialized care. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency in treatment, try different ways of communicating, and receive support from a licensed professional without sacrificing accessibility.
