Approaches that guide online care
Dr. Baylor uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to structure much of her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and practicing new ways to respond; it is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and everyday stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships, which can help with impulsivity, self-harm urges, and mood instability.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will review your goals and challenges and help determine which methods to try first. Treatment can shift over time based on how techniques are working and what feels most helpful for you.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs. Video calls let you talk face to face when you prefer visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support brief questions, skill practice, or shorter touchpoints between longer sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
