Online Therapy Approaches That Meet You Where You Are

Rachel Cohen integrates evidence-informed methods that can translate well to online work. In Client-Centered Therapy, she focuses on creating a supportive, collaborative space where clients can clarify what they are feeling, identify what matters most, and move toward goals that feel authentic, which can be especially helpful during major life transitions and relationship stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools for noticing patterns between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can be useful for concerns like anxiety, low mood, stress, and self-esteem, especially when a client wants structured strategies they can practice between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, supporting clients who feel overwhelmed or stuck in intense emotional cycles.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rachel Cohen works collaboratively with clients to choose techniques that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the pace and focus as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy can make care more accessible and flexible. Clients can connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can be helpful for busy schedules, parenting demands, or times when getting to an office feels like one more obstacle.
