Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. In practice it often includes structured exercises and skills building to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to improve daily functioning.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) blends acceptance and change strategies and emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. DBT can be especially helpful for people who struggle with strong mood swings, impulsive reactions, or chronic interpersonal conflicts.
Narrative Therapy invites clients to explore the stories they tell about their lives and to reframe those narratives in ways that open up new choices and possibilities. It can support people working through trauma, grief, identity shifts, or major life transitions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. DeVonne Allen works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists tailor interventions to each person rather than offering a one-size-fits-all model.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for schedules and locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and try different formats to find what works best for each individual.
