How Dominique works

She has eight years of clinical experience and works with a wide range of concerns, including relationship challenges, parenting stress, body image and eating issues, mood disorders, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Dominique helps people facing separation, infidelity, communication problems, and life transitions find clearer options and make intentional changes. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Dominique often uses client-centered therapy to help people feel heard and to guide conversations toward what matters most. This approach focuses on the person's goals and on listening deeply so they can shape the work that follows.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when strong emotions cause overwhelm; DBT offers concrete tools for managing feelings and improving communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dominique works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and day-to-day reality. She checks in regularly and adjusts the approach as progress or challenges emerge.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it possible to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, parenting, and other commitments.
