Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Stephanie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try practical behavior changes; CBT works well for anxiety, stress, low mood, and coping with life changes. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship tension.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then tailor techniques from CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness, or motivational interviewing to fit those needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules. Video calls let people use visual cues during sessions. Phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, skill coaching, or when a shorter, more flexible touchpoint is needed. These options help people practice skills between meetings and maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals.
