How Amanda's Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said, and helps the client clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and teaches practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals. Together they track progress and adjust methods if something is not helping.
