How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions
Tricia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on concrete behavior and coping skills. One approach emphasizes identifying patterns that feed anxiety and testing small behavioral changes to reduce stress and increase confidence. This method helps with day-to-day worries, social anxiety, and workplace strain.Another common focus is addressing compassion fatigue and burnout by tracking routine, rest, and boundaries. Sessions look at practical adjustments to reduce overwhelm and restore energy for work and relationships. These approaches aim to produce small, observable differences between meetings.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what fits the person's needs and preferences. Tricia frames this as regular check-ins about what is and isn't working so changes can be made quickly.
