How these approaches work in online therapy
Dr. Robertson uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce symptoms. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood difficulties, and sleep problems. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person's own reasons for change and builds motivation in a respectful, nonjudgmental way; it can help with starting or maintaining new habits.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the person's goals, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist set clear goals and review progress together as part of finding the right fit.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make scheduling easier, let people join from different locations within Texas, and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or avoid being on camera if that feels better. The emphasis is on practical ways to fit therapy into a busy life and on using approaches that match each person's needs.
