How CBT and Existential Work Translate to Online Therapy
Dr. Curry uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and low mood. CBT often includes simple exercises to practice between sessions and clear steps to test new ways of thinking.She also draws on Existential Therapy, which looks at meaning, responsibility, and life choices. That work helps when people are facing large life questions, grief, midlife shifts, or feelings of isolation and purpose loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Curry works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. The plan can change as progress is made and as needs shift.
The practical benefits of online work are worth confirming with the site before booking. Many people appreciate that remote sessions can fit more easily into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. If you prefer a particular session arrangement, check the current options during scheduling so sessions match your routine and goals.
