Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies to change behaviors that sustain anxiety, depression, or stress. It is often used to address mood concerns, worry, and day-to-day coping challenges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT can be especially helpful for people who struggle with intense emotions, relationship patterns, or difficulty tolerating high levels of stress.

Mindfulness therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of experience. It supports the development of attention skills and a calmer relationship to difficult thoughts and feelings, and it pairs well with both CBT and DBT techniques.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Elizabeth works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she tailors interventions so that therapy fits the client rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and for practicing skills between sessions. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent care across different settings, making it easier for people to engage in therapy that fits their routines and needs.
