How Brennan’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Brennan frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, stress, and work-related challenges. She also integrates Client-Centered Therapy, focusing on creating an accepting, empathetic space where the client’s values and goals guide the work. These approaches are presented in plain, actionable terms so clients can apply techniques between sessions and measure progress over time.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Brennan emphasizes collaboration when deciding which methods to use. She works with each person to weigh goals, personal preferences, and the nature of the difficulty at hand, adjusting techniques as needed to better fit the client’s needs.
Online therapy with Brennan is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with communication. These options make it easier to maintain consistent appointments while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow the therapeutic work to continue from wherever the client is located in California.
