Online support options

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Dr. Lluveras uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and create short-term plans that show immediate progress. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past hurt affects daily life, with careful steps to process and lessen traumatic reactions. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust methods as progress unfolds. That collaborative process helps make sure sessions feel useful and realistic. Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing brief contact between meetings. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to maintain alongside work, parenting, or other commitments.
