Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Amber draws on several evidence-based approaches that adapt effectively to remote formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is practical and skill-oriented, often helping with anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - skills that support people dealing with intense emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns like self-criticism. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured method for processing traumatic memories and reducing their lingering emotional impact; it can be delivered thoughtfully through guided sessions to help people move forward from past hurts.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amber collaborates with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques from these modalities to create a personalized plan and adjusts the plan as clients progress.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives - it allows clients to meet with licensed professionals from home or another comfortable setting via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain consistency, access care around work or family demands, and use therapy tools in real-world contexts.
