Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Heather Johnson uses evidence-informed approaches that translate well to remote work, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and stress. It is goal-oriented and often includes exercises to try between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person’s own motivation to change. It is collaborative and nonjudgmental, useful for addressing ambivalence around life changes, motivation, and behavior shifts. Solution-Focused Therapy complements these methods by emphasizing short-term, strengths-based strategies to move toward concrete goals and small, achievable changes.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Heather works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and easier access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it simpler to maintain consistent support around work, family, and other commitments while working with licensed professionals and therapists to address emotional and behavioral concerns.
