Therapeutic approaches and online sessions with Mona Burden-Blunt

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety and trauma. One common approach focuses on skills for managing panic and anxiety symptoms through breathing, grounding, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. These practices aim to reduce the intensity and frequency of panic attacks and social anxiety over time.

Another approach concentrates on trauma-related symptoms and post-traumatic stress by helping people process distressing memories and learn coping strategies to manage flashbacks, hyperarousal, and avoidance. Work here typically combines careful pacing with practical tools for handling triggers in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. Methods can be adjusted as progress is assessed and new goals emerge.
