How Cheryl’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects feelings, and helps people name what matters most; this approach supports concerns like low self-worth, life transitions, and relationship conflict.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating problems, and for managing stress with concrete exercises and homework.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers practical skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. Skills from DBT can help with impulsive behavior, relationship difficulties, and coping when feelings escalate.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust strategies based on what helps most over time.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins between in-person visits, remove travel time, and fit sessions into a workday or busy family schedule. Talk with the therapist during intake about how to shape remote sessions to suit your routine and goals.
