How Dr. Allen Uses CBT and Solution-Focused Methods Online
Dr. Allen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often include clear skill teaching, thought records, and small experiments to reduce anxiety, panic attacks, and low mood.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify practical steps toward the outcomes a person wants. That approach focuses on strengths, exceptions to problems, and short-term goals so progress can be seen quickly for issues like stress, relationship strain, and caregiving burden.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. She will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works best. The process is collaborative so people can shape therapy to their needs and preferences.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face work for skills practice and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates, ask questions between sessions, and use brief exchanges when a full session is not possible.
