Practical approaches for online therapy
Dr. Belokon commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing when working with clients online. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and learning concrete skills to change behaviors and manage symptoms, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and many stress-related problems. Motivational interviewing emphasizes exploring a person's own reasons for change and enhancing intrinsic motivation, making it a helpful approach for addictions, readiness to change, and goal-focused work.Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then adapts methods over time so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single technique from the outset.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across distances and time zones while allowing clients to choose formats that best support their day-to-day life and therapeutic progress.
