Therapeutic approaches and online options with Dianne Dabney
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more constructive patterns. It is practical and skills-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It can be helpful for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive or self-defeating behaviors.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's own goals and experiences, offering empathetic support and collaborative problem solving. This approach helps people build self-awareness and confidence while shaping therapy to their individual values and pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work - the therapist collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor treatment and adjust techniques as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care when life is unpredictable.
