How Jana's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand trust, connection, and how they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving tolerance for distress, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jana will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean trying CBT skills for a period, then shifting to attachment-focused work, or blending techniques across approaches as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow longer, interactive sessions when a visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging let people do shorter check-ins, use written reflection, or keep therapy going between scheduled sessions.
