Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Chanel Bowen draws from several well-established approaches to guide online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies to change behaviors and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, stress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, and can be especially useful for managing intense emotions and relationship challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in clarifying values and taking committed action while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Chanel works with each person to explore what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time so the plan stays aligned with progress and priorities.

Online therapy with Chanel is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These remote options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, continue care during transitions, and maintain momentum between scheduled meetings while working with licensed professionals and therapists focused on practical, effective support.
