Using Person-Centered and CBT Approaches Online

Tyra uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and understanding the person's experience. This approach focuses on empathy and following what matters most to the person, helping them feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps people spot patterns in their thoughts and behaviors and then practice different responses to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tyra will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. The focus is on practical steps and agreed-upon goals rather than a one-size-fits-all method.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper dialogue, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep regular momentum between appointments.
