Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. & Mrs. Liliana Uribe utilizes client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and guidance - this approach is helpful for relationship, grief, self-esteem, and life transition work. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT is often effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and certain coping challenges. In addition, she integrates elements of trauma-focused therapy when addressing trauma and abuse, aiming to help clients process traumatic experiences and develop strategies for reducing their impact.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Licensed professionals and therapists work with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and Dr. & Mrs. Liliana Uribe tailors her methods accordingly so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone allow real-time interaction, while live chat and text-based messaging provide supplemental ways to stay connected between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from different locations, while preserving the therapeutic relationship and continuity of care.
