Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Anupama has worked with people facing trauma, abuse, domestic violence, and infidelity. She also supports those dealing with panic attacks and panic disorder using techniques to reduce symptoms and build coping skills.
Sessions can include talk, skill practice, and step-by-step plans to try between meetings. Her background includes faith-informed work with Christian clients when that perspective is wanted. She tailors dialogue and treatment plans to each person's values and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Progress is often built through regular practice of new skills and small, achievable steps. Sessions are offered in English. Anupama is licensed in California and brings two decades of clinical experience to her practice.
She aims to create a calm, direct space where people can work toward clearer thinking and more manageable emotions.
CBT and DBT tools delivered online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice patterns of thought that increase anxiety or depression and then practice small behavior changes. It is often used for worry, panic symptoms, low mood, and problem-solving in relationships.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These strategies are useful when feelings feel overwhelming or when communication and boundaries are getting in the way of daily life.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust techniques as progress is made. That collaborative process helps shape the plan for sessions and skill practice between meetings.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video is good for in-depth work and skill demonstrations, phone is helpful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging can support quick reflections and ongoing skill practice between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules and needs while keeping therapy focused and practical.
