How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions
Crystal uses a blend of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive techniques. Cognitive-behavioral methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and manage stress. Humanistic approaches emphasize the client's own values and choices to clarify what matters most. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat over time to help recognize how past experiences influence current decisions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. Decisions about which methods to use are collaborative and can change as progress is made.
