Client-Centered Care and Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy is at the heart of Moira McCarthy's practice. This approach focuses on listening carefully and responding to each person's experience without directing the outcome. It helps people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, addiction, and life transitions by supporting self-understanding and personal growth.

Moira frames therapy as a collaborative process. She works with clients to identify what matters most to them and adapts the pace and focus of sessions to match their goals and preferences. Together they explore practical and emotional steps forward so the therapeutic approach fits the individual rather than the other way around.

Online therapy with Moira can take place by video call, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, to access support from different locations, and to choose a mode of communication that feels most comfortable. Registered professionals and therapists can make these options work effectively for ongoing therapeutic progress.
