Practical therapy approaches for online care
Heidi uses client-centered therapy to start. That means she listens first and follows the person's priorities. This helps build trust and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to the individual.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT helps people try small, testable behavior changes and notice what works to reduce anxiety or improve mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, is used when strong emotions or impulsivity are a concern. DBT teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication to manage intense moments more effectively.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods that match the client's needs and adjust those methods over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can fit a shorter break at work, live chat works for faster check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit consistent work on stress and anxiety into a busy life.
