Remote counseling with client-centered and CBT approaches
Jocelyn Acoff offers online sessions that combine Client-Centered Therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so that the person leading the work sets goals and priorities while the therapist provides support and reflection. This approach can be a good fit for those who want a respectful, goal-oriented partnership.
CBT is used to explore patterns of thought and behavior and to develop practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or stress. Jocelyn uses CBT tools alongside a client-centered stance to help clients identify concrete steps and skills to try between sessions. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to select the communication style that fits their needs. Jocelyn works collaboratively to tailor approaches to each person’s concerns and to decide which tools and formats will be used in the work together.
