Therapeutic approaches used in remote work
Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding the person's perspective and values. It helps people clarify what matters to them and supports collaborative decision making about goals and next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change. It uses reflective conversation to strengthen motivation and plan small, sustainable steps toward goals.
Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. Marian will discuss different methods and help decide which fit a person's goals, needs and preferences. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what works in practice.
