Online approaches for anxiety, trauma, and change
Janice commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused techniques when working online. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and practice small behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood. Trauma-focused therapy looks at how past traumatic events influence current reactions and guides gradual, paced work to reduce their hold.She also uses solution-focused methods to set clear, achievable goals and identify immediate next steps. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and preferences and then choose which methods to try together.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video sessions let people work face to face when convenient, phone sessions can fit shorter breaks or easier bandwidth, and chat or text messaging supports brief check-ins and ongoing skill practice. These options make it simpler to schedule therapy around work, family, and other commitments.
