Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental stance so the client can explore feelings and values at their own pace. This approach often helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and building motivation by centering the client’s experience and promoting self-directed growth.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, and it can be useful for managing depressive symptoms, anger, and patterns that interfere with day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marlene collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works with clients to adjust techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access care without geographic constraints. These options support consistent scheduling, allow work with international clients, and help integrate therapy into busy lives while maintaining continuity of care.
