Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Ingrid uses evidence-based approaches adapted to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, helping clients manage intense feelings and improve relationships. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-informed method that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional impact, and it can be helpful for people recovering from abuse or traumatic events.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Ingrid works collaboratively with clients to evaluate which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy stays focused and relevant to each person’s priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to connect from home, balance appointments with work or caregiving, and maintain continuity of care when schedules shift, while still receiving support from licensed professionals and therapists experienced in these approaches.
