How CBT and online sessions work together
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and practice alternative ways of thinking. This approach can reduce anxiety symptoms and improve daily coping skills.For substance use and addictive behaviors, Renee uses a skills-based approach that breaks down triggers and builds concrete strategies for managing urges. Sessions often include planning for high-risk situations and practicing new responses to cravings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Renee will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and lifestyle. She adjusts methods based on what is effective and on the client's preferences so progress feels practical and achievable.
Online therapy offers flexibility for many schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging support quick check-ins, written reflection, and shorter touchpoints between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing work, school, or family obligations.
