Evidence-based approaches and online care
Two common evidence-based approaches Dorothy uses involve helping people change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and teaching skills to manage intense feelings. Cognitive-focused techniques help identify and shift negative thinking that fuels anxiety or low mood, which can reduce worry and improve daily function. Behavioral strategies include gradual exposures or activity planning to break avoidant patterns and restore routines that support mood and energy.Another useful approach centers on building coping skills for trauma and stress reactions. This involves learning grounding and regulation strategies, pacing work to avoid overwhelm, and rehearsing safer responses to triggers. These methods are practical and focus on what the person can do day to day to feel more in control.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dorothy will work with clients to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and life demands. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and as needs change.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and messaging or live chat are helpful for quick check-ins or when scheduling a real-time session is hard. These formats make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and varying comfort levels.
