Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Isabel DeMello integrates evidence-informed approaches to help clients understand and change patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relational patterns shape feelings and responses, which can be useful for concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, and relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship in which the client’s goals and values guide the pace and focus of work, helping with self-esteem and identity-related issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often helping with anxiety, panic, and mood symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Isabel works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Isabel is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and allows people to engage in therapy from different locations. These options can make it easier to access regular support and to continue work between sessions, helping clients maintain momentum and apply skills in daily life.
