Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Brandy integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel understood and can set their own goals - it is useful for building confidence and addressing self-esteem concerns. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression by changing thinking and behavior. DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress, which can be especially helpful for clients coping with trauma, impulsive behaviors, or interpersonal challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brandy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy with Brandy can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to choose the format that suits their schedule and comfort level. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, access support from home, and integrate therapeutic work into day-to-day life with greater convenience.
