Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s needs. The therapist offers empathy and supports the person’s own goals, which can make it easier to talk about anger, loss, or relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot patterns of thought that lead to upset or harmful behavior. It includes simple homework and practical exercises to change thinking and build new habits, which many people find useful when managing mood or addiction concerns.

Motivational Interviewing is a gentle, goal-focused method that helps when change feels hard. It supports people to clarify their reasons for change and build small, sustainable steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terence collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Together they adjust pace and focus as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or make it simpler to continue care when schedules change. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking to learn how a session will be scheduled and delivered.
