Approaches and Support for Online Therapeutic Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the pace and topics of therapy. It helps people who need support building self-understanding, improving self-esteem, and making personal decisions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and awareness skills to help manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelming emotions through present-moment techniques and grounding practices. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and internal patterns shape current feelings and relationships, which can be useful for addressing trauma, recurring relationship issues, and long-standing emotional difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alev works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time as clients learn more about what helps them feel and function better.

Online therapy with Alev is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from home, and choose the communication style that best supports progress with registered professionals and therapists.
