Therapeutic approaches and online care

Dr. Nawal Aboulhosn uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early and current relationships shape emotional responses and patterns of connection - this approach can be particularly helpful for attachment concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and relational repair. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-focused method that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Additionally, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) supports clients and couples in understanding and reshaping emotional responses to improve closeness and communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Aboulhosn collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy aligns with each person or family's priorities.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and therapists can also work with clients through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate different comfort levels with technology, and maintain continuity of care for clients who live outside the therapist's immediate area.
