Client-Centered and Motivational Approaches Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on offering a non-judgmental, empathetic environment where the person leads the pace and topics of conversation. This approach helps people who want to explore their feelings, build self-understanding, and strengthen their sense of agency in relationships and life decisions.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused method that supports people in resolving mixed feelings about change. It helps with motivation for practical steps, whether the goal is improving relationships, managing mood, or making healthier daily choices.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa Kirk works collaboratively with clients and other registered professionals to identify which methods best match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support into busy lives or across different locations. These options allow regular contact, convenient scheduling, and continued momentum in therapy even when in-person meetings are not possible.
