Online support options
Online approaches that focus on action and change
Connie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and practice different ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find personal reasons to change behavior, which is useful for addictions and sticking with new habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will explore your goals, needs, and preferences and recommend which methods to try. Plans are adjusted over time based on what proves most helpful, so the process stays collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, journaling support, and step-by-step encouragement between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into work days, school schedules, or busy family routines.
