Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Bobbie Paul uses evidence-informed approaches to help clients make practical changes and process difficult experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management by teaching concrete skills to change patterns that maintain distress.

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people safely process and integrate traumatic experiences. This approach emphasizes stabilizing symptoms, building coping strategies, and addressing the emotional and physiological impacts of trauma and abuse.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Paul works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in work with licensed professionals. Sessions may take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care across life transitions.
