Approaches that translate to online care
Susan commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds practical skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, attainable goals and to notice small signs of progress. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the kind of tools that feel manageable, and then tailor sessions to those needs.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the work, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can fit into busy days and allow brief check-ins or focused skill practice between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into different routines and to keep momentum during life transitions.
