Therapeutic approaches and online work
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and practical problem solving.She also uses Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These DBT-based skills can help when strong emotions disrupt daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
