Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Wendy commonly combines existential perspectives, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques in online work. Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice, and the realities of life, helping people facing emptiness, major transitions, or questions about purpose. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathetic listening and helping the person feel heard so they can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers concrete tools to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Wendy will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then shape sessions to match those needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts direction if a different approach would be more helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching coping skills. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching between sessions, or people who prefer typing over speaking. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives.
