Approaches that translate well to online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses concrete exercises and home practice to reduce anxiety and improve mood. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. It can help people who struggle with intense emotions, relationship conflict, or chronic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose techniques that fit. That collaborative process means methods can shift over time if something isn’t working or priorities change.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation from another location. Phone sessions can work when internet bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, homework support, or when writing helps process thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
