Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Amanda commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based work to help people manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that help with emotional regulation and sleep.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy strategies that teach practical skills for tolerating strong emotions and improving relationships. Those DBT skills are concrete and can be practiced during a video session or reviewed in a text exchange. Amanda approaches choice of method as a collaborative process and will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided practice of techniques. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts between sessions and get brief, ongoing support. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still using the same therapeutic approaches.
