How Edith’s Approaches Work Online
Edith uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal effectiveness. These approaches often pair well with brief solution-focused techniques that set clear goals and small steps for change.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Edith will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what is working.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Video calls are helpful for deeper conversation and skill practice, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reminders and brief coaching between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other daily routines.
