How evidence-based techniques translate to online work
Carla uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. For example, cognitive-behavioral strategies help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of coping; these techniques are useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. Behavioral activation involves planning small, manageable activities to lift mood and reduce isolation, which can be helpful for depression and loneliness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carla will discuss goals and preferences and collaborate with each person to decide which techniques to prioritize. Sessions mix talking, practical exercises, and homework so clients can try tools between meetings and report back on what helps.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same evidence-based skill practice and goal-focused planning you would expect in person.
