Approaches and Online Care with Manzaler "Manzie" Lohrey

Manzie integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - which helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building practical skills to reduce anxiety, stress and mood concerns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, a collaborative, empathic approach that centers the client’s own goals and pace and fosters self-exploration and self-compassion.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work, and Manzie partners with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative process may combine elements from different approaches to create a personalized plan that feels useful and sustainable.

Online therapy with Manzie is offered through flexible formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, access care from home or work, and maintain continuity of support during life transitions, while still working with licensed professionals who guide the therapeutic process.
