Approaches That Guide Online Sessions
Kimberly commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as part of her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. DBT teaches skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and practicing healthier ways to react in tense moments.She also brings mindfulness into sessions, teaching simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase self-awareness. These methods are offered collaboratively - the therapist and client decide together what to try based on goals and what feels useful in everyday life.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when a deeper check-in is needed. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or when being on camera is tiring. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter, focused check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. This mix makes it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
