Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Rev. Leonard Shepherd uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as core tools in his online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps clarify values and goals; this approach is useful for improving self-understanding, relationships, and motivation. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mood and stress-related concerns. He also integrates trauma-focused therapy when past traumatic experiences are central to a person’s difficulties, working to reduce the impact of trauma while supporting coping and resilience.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Rev. Shepherd works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors methods and pacing to fit the individual. This collaborative planning helps ensure the work feels relevant and achievable.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from different locations, and maintain continuity when life brings changes, while still allowing therapists and clients to engage in focused, goal-oriented work.
