How Kerline’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and sleep or eating concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interactions with others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerline will talk through goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and can change over time as progress and needs become clearer.
