Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Emily draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on changing the thoughts and actions that contribute to emotional distress, making it useful for many common concerns.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is another frequent component of her work and emphasizes skills-building in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and improving coping during crises.
Attachment-Based Therapy informs her approach to relationships and trust issues by exploring how earlier connections shape current patterns, which can support healing around intimacy, abandonment, and relational struggles.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Emily collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Emily can occur via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and for the ways people prefer to communicate. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
