How Cody Uses Therapy Approaches Online

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often focus on practical exercises, tracking moods, and testing new behaviors between appointments to reduce anxiety and depression.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance. In an online session this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said, and helps the person feel heard while exploring goals and options.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cody will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as needed. The process is collaborative and can shift over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can work for quick check-ins or when journaling would help. These options offer flexibility so people can choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort.
