Evidence-based methods and online care that fit your life
Dr. Weekes uses a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns. One common approach she uses focuses on skills training to manage strong emotions and improve day-to-day coping; this helps people reduce anxiety, handle stress, and work through upsetting reactions. Another approach centers on processing traumatic memories in ways that reduce their hold on daily life; this can help people feel less triggered and more able to engage in relationships and routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss what feels most helpful, try methods in session, and adjust plans based on the client’s goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and paced to what a person can manage.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it simpler to keep a consistent schedule, fit appointments around work or caregiving, and choose the format that best matches each moment.
