Her approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to spot unhelpful thought patterns and teach emotional skills.
She also uses mindfulness techniques to help calm the body and Narrative Therapy to reframe life stories. These methods are blended to match each client’s needs and goals. Dr.

How her approaches translate to online care
Dr. Beaubrun-Macaluso uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often involves setting small goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and reviewing progress together to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. DBT techniques can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationship patterns cause repeated conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and comfort level, and adjusts strategies as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions remain useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different life schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick reflections, ongoing coaching, or when written processing helps someone think things through. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and maintain momentum between meetings.
