How therapeutic approaches work online
Dr. Drewes commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques that help people notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and homework-oriented, which makes it a good fit for addressing anxiety, panic, and stress by teaching concrete skills like thought records and exposure steps.She also draws on mindfulness-based methods that teach present-moment awareness and simple breathing or attention exercises. These practices aim to reduce reactivity and help people tolerate difficult feelings without becoming overwhelmed, which can be useful for panic, worry, and mood concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, pace, and daily life. The therapist adapts techniques based on progress and feedback so the plan stays practical and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different days and needs. Video lets people work face to face for skills practice, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging provides brief reflections or homework support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into a busy schedule.
