How Client-Centered and Existential Therapy Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting the person where they are by offering an empathetic, non-directive environment in which the client’s perspectives guide the conversation. This approach helps with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and feeling stuck by emphasizing understanding, validation, and personal growth. Existential therapy explores meaning, choice, and personal responsibility, helping people navigate life transitions, grief, isolation, and questions about identity or purpose through reflective conversation and values-based work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Melanie works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs and goals, adapting sessions over time as priorities evolve. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in shaping their care and ensures therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, keep momentum between meetings, and access support from home or another convenient location. For many people, these formats increase accessibility and make sustained progress more manageable.
