Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Denise Finney frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger management. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting practical, forward-looking goals and building on strengths to create measurable change, which can be especially effective for clients seeking targeted strategies and quicker progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Finney collaborates with each client to determine what fits best. She considers the client’s needs, goals, and preferences and adapts methods so therapy remains personalized and goal-oriented. This collaborative process helps ensure treatment is both relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow clients to connect with licensed professionals from home or on the go, schedule sessions that fit busy lives, and continue consistent care even when in-person visits are difficult. The variety of communication methods supports different comfort levels and therapeutic goals.
