How CBT and collaborative care work online
The therapist uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions affect each other. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or stress. It often includes concrete exercises to try between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques together, and adjust the plan based on what is helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions match their needs.
