How Client-Centered and CBT work in online sessions
Marianne uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and building understanding of a person’s perspective. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through changes or to clarify values and priorities.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT offers concrete exercises and experiments that address anxiety, depression, stress, and behavior patterns linked to addiction or relationship problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marianne collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts strategies over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.
The site process explains how to get started but does not list specific session formats here. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether phone or video sessions are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight.
