Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic relationship where the person’s own goals and values guide the work. This approach helps when someone needs support processing emotions, building self-worth, or navigating personal change because it centers the client’s perspective.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and improving day-to-day coping.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and clearer goals rather than exhaustive problem exploration. It can be especially useful for clients seeking short-term momentum and concrete steps forward.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. Bridget Kujansuu works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to determine which methods align with a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when sessions happen. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow therapy to fit into busy schedules, accommodate different comfort levels, and make consistent support more accessible for people in varied locations.
