Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Ellen Clark draws from approaches that can be especially practical in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore what they are feeling and needing, at their own pace, which can be helpful for grief, self-esteem, and relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and habits and practice new ways of responding. It is often used for concerns like depression, social anxiety, and ongoing self-criticism, with a focus on skills that can be used between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds tools for managing intense emotions, building distress tolerance, and strengthening communication. It can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships feel hard to navigate.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ellen collaborates with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked in the past, then adapts the work to fit their needs over time.
Online therapy also makes support easier to access. Clients can meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility around schedules, energy levels, and day-to-day responsibilities.
