Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Marion Saulque draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can work well in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive space where the client leads the pace and priorities, with the therapist offering steady empathy and respect. This approach can be especially helpful when someone feels overwhelmed by stress, relationship strain, grief, or major life changes and wants a place to sort through what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-focused approach that helps people notice unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviors and experiment with new ways of responding. It is often used when anxiety, depression, or day-to-day stress makes it hard to function the way someone wants to.
Marion has also been training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an approach often used to help people process distressing experiences and reduce how strongly those memories affect the present.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marion collaborates with clients to choose strategies that fit their goals, comfort level, and preferences, and she can adjust the plan as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy can make support easier to access and maintain. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, and they can also use live chat or text-based messaging, which can be helpful for fitting therapy into a busy week or for continuing momentum between sessions.
