CBT and strengths-based care delivered online
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills-oriented approach that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective patterns. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood-related concerns and can include practical tools for coping with cravings and managing triggers related to addictions.
A strengths-based stance complements CBT by focusing on the client’s existing resources and resilience. This approach treats the person as the expert of their story and builds on what is already working to support recovery and emotional growth.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tien works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and together they adapt techniques to best fit the individual. Online formats make that collaboration flexible - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing therapy to fit into varied schedules and circumstances. These options increase accessibility and make it easier for clients to maintain consistent care while working toward their goals.
