How Brent’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening to the client and following their lead. In practice this means the therapist focuses on understanding the client's concerns and priorities, then shapes sessions around those needs. It is helpful for building self-awareness, exploring family and relationship patterns, and improving self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers concrete strategies for reducing anxiety, managing panic, and changing unhelpful patterns. CBT commonly includes short exercises and plans to try between sessions so progress continues outside of meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to choose or blend methods based on their goals, life circumstances, and how they respond to different techniques. That teamwork helps tailor sessions so they feel useful and relevant.
