Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Jaime commonly uses client-centered therapy, which centers the session on the client's concerns and goals and helps people feel heard while deciding what to work on first. This approach supports conversations about parenting stress, relationship problems, grief, and life transitions.She also applies cognitive-behavioral therapy, a skills-focused method that looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active and teaches practical ways to change them. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with stressful changes. Dialectical behavior therapy adds skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, which can help with strong emotions and relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jaime will discuss options and help pick methods that match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration makes it easier to focus on small, useful steps and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexible ways to connect. Video is good for fuller conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging fits short check-ins or when it helps to write things out. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to use different formats as needs change.
