Approaches that fit online care
Kendall uses evidence-based techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. One common approach teaches practical coping skills for managing anxiety and panic, such as breathing work, grounding, and gradual exposure to feared situations. These steps aim to reduce overwhelm and build confidence in everyday moments.Another approach focuses on mood regulation and routine building for depression and bipolar-related challenges. This involves a mix of activity planning, sleep and rhythm adjustments, and goal setting to increase motivation and stabilize mood.
Choosing the best approach is a team effort. Kendall listens to each person’s goals and preferences and then suggests methods that match their needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress or obstacles appear.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people juggling busy schedules or long commutes. Video calls let therapist and client work face to face when that helps. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers audio only. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around real life.
