Approaches That Inform Online Therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns in close connections. It helps people understand attachment styles, improve emotional safety with others, and address issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, and relationship struggles.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, empathetic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s pace and perspective. This approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal growth and is useful for people seeking a non-directive, compassionate space to work through life changes.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, coping skills, and practical problem solving.
Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Randa will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress unfolds so therapy stays relevant and effective.
Online therapy with Randa is offered by registered professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
