Practical, Evidence-Based Support Through Online Therapy

Kara Riggott draws from approaches that prioritize both understanding and actionable change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, values, and goals at their own pace, which can be especially helpful when motivation, self-esteem, or confidence feels shaken.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practice skills that support steadier mood and reduced anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which many people find useful when feelings become intense or hard to manage.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kara collaborates with clients to clarify what they want to work on and to choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting along the way as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to keep therapy consistent, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and reach support from a comfortable setting.
