How these approaches translate to online therapy

Dr. Jenerette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and often involves tasks between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting. Motivational Interviewing is about finding what matters to the person and boosting their own reasons to change by asking open questions and reflecting back what they say. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing painful experiences gently and building coping skills to reduce their impact on daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and needs with each person and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape session content and homework so the plan fits the person's life.

This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose a quieter time of day or avoid on-camera sessions if that feels better. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-focused methods to work in remote sessions while focusing on practical skills that carry into everyday life.
