She also incorporates dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions and urges.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Dana listens to each person’s goals and preferences, then suggests strategies to try. She adjusts methods over time so therapy stays useful and matches what the person needs in their life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions let people work face to face from wherever they are. Phone sessions are handy when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter, on-the-go ways to touch base and practice skills between longer sessions.
