Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Healing and Growth



Curley commonly incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy into online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to change them, helping with anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasizes understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships to improve connection and resolve conflict, which can benefit couples and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; the therapist partners with each client to evaluate which methods fit their goals, strengths, and concerns. Together they may adapt CBT exercises, deepen emotional understanding with EFT techniques, or draw on client-centered principles and narrative work to honor the client’s story while pursuing practical change.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, skills-oriented support and relationship-focused work without requiring travel, while still enabling regular contact and follow-up between appointments.
