Approaches for calming anxiety online
Dr. Codallos often combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral work. Client-centered therapy means conversations are guided by the person’s own concerns and goals, with the therapist helping to reflect and clarify what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety symptoms and stress.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotion regulation is a priority. DBT skills teach tolerating distress, managing strong feelings, and improving how people relate to others. These practical skills can help during moments of overwhelm and in everyday interactions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to see what fits a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts methods as progress unfolds. Clients help set the direction and try approaches that suit their pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for longer talks and skill practice, phone works when bandwidth is low, live chat or text can be used for brief check-ins or step-by-step guidance. These options help people fit support into work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping therapy practical and focused.
