Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
DeBorah often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-based, and it can help with anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, and mood regulation.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name strong feelings and improve how they connect with others. EFT is useful when emotions get in the way of intimacy, communication, or resolving recurring conflicts.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another option she may draw on to help people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values. ACT can support those coping with chronic stress, avoidance, or life changes.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they choose methods and adjust them as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging let people send updates, try brief exercises, and stay connected between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives.
