Therapeutic approaches and online care

Karyn Borrego integrates approaches that help clients build insight, manage difficult emotions, and take practical steps toward change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters most, which can be particularly useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing skills to shift those patterns, often used for anxiety, panic, mood disorders, and trauma-related symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, collaborative relationship in which the therapist offers empathy and active listening to support a client’s own capacity for growth and self-discovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Karyn works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time as those needs evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity through life transitions, and access support from a licensed professional without needing to travel to an office.
