Approaches and benefits of online counseling
Akeesha uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening-first environment where clients feel heard and can set the pace of work. This approach helps when people need acceptance and support before moving on to problem solving.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and daily habits that increase stress. Motivational interviewing is another tool she brings in to help people find their own reasons and confidence to change.
Choosing the right method is part of the process. She works collaboratively to match methods to each person's goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients take an active role in deciding what feels most helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter environment is needed. Live chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins, homework, or when typing feels easier. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, and family life while keeping therapy practical and consistent.
