How CBT and Motivational Interviewing work online

Javonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try different behaviors. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and stress by teaching simple tools to change thinking patterns.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find and strengthen their own reasons for change. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making life changes, career moves, or improving habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simple to send updates, ask brief questions, or work through exercises between appointments. These options let people fit therapy around work, childcare, and daily life while trying approaches like CBT and Motivational Interviewing in real time.
