How Kerrie’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on an open, respectful conversation where the therapist follows the client's lead and reflects what matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and clarifies personal goals during online conversations.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT sessions often include concrete strategies and exercises to try between meetings, useful for anxiety, depression, OCD, and mood concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerrie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean starting with client-centered listening, then adding CBT tools or solution-focused steps as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and help people access consistent support regardless of location.
