Approaches and the Benefits of Online Therapy

Elizabeth Griffin frequently uses Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, a practical, evidence-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop new strategies for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and related concerns. She also applies principles from Marriage and Family Therapy to address relationship dynamics, communication challenges, and family conflict, helping couples and families improve interaction patterns and solve problems collaboratively. In addition, she draws from a range of counseling theories to tailor care to each person’s needs, combining techniques that best match a client’s goals and circumstances.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Elizabeth works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress is made and priorities change.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access care from different locations. These formats support continuity of care, offer flexibility in how sessions are held, and allow therapists and clients to maintain a consistent therapeutic relationship even when in-person visits are not possible.
