Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Healing

Aquita Burrus draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and communication challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) offers a structured method to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity, supporting recovery from trauma and abuse.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Aquita collaborates with each client to determine what fits best. She considers a client’s goals, preferences, and life context when recommending strategies, and adapts methods as progress unfolds to ensure the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Aquita can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs and routines. These options make it easier to access consistent support around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities, and allow therapists to use techniques and exercises that translate well to remote formats while keeping the focus on meaningful, practical change.
