Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Dr. Brenda Davis uses evidence-informed methods tailored to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then practicing alternative ways of responding; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on understanding and processing the effects of traumatic experiences, helping people reduce distressing symptoms and regain a sense of safety and control. Internal Family Systems explores the different parts of a person - such as protective or vulnerable parts - to promote internal harmony and clearer self-leadership.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Dr. Davis collaborates with clients to assess goals, preferences, and needs, adjusting techniques over time so the plan fits the individual. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility: clients can meet by video, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging as needed. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around work, caregiving, or mobility limitations, and they allow therapy to continue even when in-person visits are not possible.
