Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Brenda Ticknor draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can be adapted to online sessions and matched to what a client wants to change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful relationship where clients can explore challenges at their own pace, which can be especially helpful when dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, or the aftereffects of trauma.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and practice new strategies in day-to-day life. It is often used when people want practical tools for anxiety, depression, and coping with cravings or habits connected to addiction.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication, which can be useful when life feels overwhelming or relationships feel hard to navigate.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brenda works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand what is and is not working, and choose strategies that fit their needs and preferences.
Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to get support in a format that fits real life.
