Using Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Chandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy in her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and it is often applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related difficulties through structured exercises and skill practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and creating a supportive therapeutic relationship to help clients explore feelings and values at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and symptoms and may combine elements from these approaches to tailor sessions that feel effective and achievable for daily life.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care during life transitions, and choose the communication style that best supports progress with practical skills and emotional work.
