How CBT and online sessions work together
Dr. Cross often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT focuses on small, practical changes - for example, testing a worrying thought or practicing a new way of responding. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they adjust methods over time so the work matches real life and produces manageable steps forward.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messages or live chat suit quick check-ins or short coaching-style support. These options let people connect from different locations and choose what works best for their routine.
