Therapeutic approaches and online care with David Cervera

Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the work, offering a supportive, non-directive space where a person's own insights and values guide progress - this approach often helps with self-esteem, relationship difficulties and emotional distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, offering practical strategies to manage anxiety, stress and mood-related concerns. Psychodynamic Therapy explores patterns that stem from past experiences and relationships, helping clients understand how those patterns influence current feelings and interactions and supporting deeper insight into long-standing issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative process may combine elements from different approaches to match what the client finds most helpful.

Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from their own location, supporting consistent engagement and continuity of care.
