Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online
Ondrea Hairston draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and building practical coping skills to respond differently. It is often used for concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and navigating difficult life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship experiences can shape trust, connection, and emotional safety. This approach can be especially helpful when relationship concerns, trauma, or patterns like codependency are getting in the way of feeling secure with others. Mindfulness Therapy supports learning to relate to thoughts and feelings with more awareness and less reactivity, which can be useful when emotions feel intense or when daily stress is building up.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ondrea collaborates with clients to understand what they want to work on, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what feels comfortable, then adapts the work to fit those goals and preferences.
Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This can make it easier to stay consistent with support while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
