Practical approaches for online coping and change
Connie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and mood symptoms. DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness, which helps with anger, impulsivity, and relationship strain.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and challenges, then try methods that fit best. Adjustments are made over time so the plan stays practical and useful for daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can suit quick updates or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work moving between sessions.
