How Colleen’s Approaches Work Online
Colleen uses client-centered therapy to keep the conversation focused on each person's needs and goals. This approach means the client guides what matters most and the therapist follows their lead to build trust and clarity.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and tests small changes. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, stress, and practical coping skills by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to pick tools that fit the person's life and priorities.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversation times, while phone sessions can be a simpler option that uses less bandwidth. Shorter check-ins work well over chat or text and can help people stay engaged between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules and needs.
