Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. She aims to make therapy feel like a collaborative problem-solving process rather than a lecture. Dr.
McCants uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. That means she helps people notice thinking patterns, practice new skills, and use their own values to guide decisions. She mixes these approaches depending on what someone needs most.
She also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, divorce and separation, financial worries, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. First responder issues, forgiveness, guilt, jealousy, and questions about life purpose are other areas she addresses. Therapy with Dr.
McCants can include short skill-focused sessions or longer conversations about life transitions. The goal is to give clear tools and steady support so people can move forward at their own pace.
Approaches and how online therapy supports them
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience first. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps people make choices that fit their values and goals. This approach is useful for building trust and clarifying what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses clear steps to identify unhelpful thinking and practice different responses. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping during life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It emphasizes balance between accepting current experience and making changes, which can help with stress, intense emotions, and interpersonal conflict.
Finding the right fit is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to choose and adapt approaches based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape what techniques are used and how sessions are structured.
Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or ongoing skill practice between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on progress and usable tools.
