Client-centered and CBT approaches for online support
Sandra Holden draws on client-centered therapy to create a supportive, non-judgemental space where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect, making it useful for improving self-esteem, building confidence, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used alongside this work to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies to manage stress, anxiety, anger, and low mood. CBT focuses on concrete skills that can reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sandra works with each person to explore what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods as progress is made. Together the therapist and client decide which techniques to prioritise and when to try different tools.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to attend sessions from home, and to maintain continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change. Registered professionals can deliver effective therapeutic support through these formats while working with clients toward meaningful change.
