Online support options
Approaches you can use online
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills and step-by-step plans. DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthy communication. It can help with intense emotions, self-management, and relationship patterns. EMDR uses a structured process to reduce the emotional impact of traumatic memories and can be helpful for people processing past trauma or abuse.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then recommend methods to try. Plans are revisited as progress is made so the approach can be adjusted to fit what works best.
Online therapy with Damon is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support brief check-ins or work between sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments while keeping contact consistent and practical.
