DBT, CBT, and Mindfulness approaches for online therapy
James White integrates dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques into online care. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) focuses on teaching concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships - it is often used with people who struggle with intense emotions, mood instability, or patterns that interfere with daily life. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, and coping with life transitions. Mindfulness therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and acceptance skills, which can reduce reactivity to stress and support coping with trauma, grief, and ongoing stressors.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. James works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts strategies over time to find the best combination for each person. This collaborative stance helps tailor treatment to individual circumstances.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules, mobility, and geographic distance. Working with licensed professionals in this format makes access to consistent, ongoing support more manageable, allowing clients to practice new skills and follow a treatment plan from wherever they are.
