Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Karen Spring works with several well-established therapeutic methods that translate effectively to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and learn practical skills to change reactions and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) blends acceptance and change strategies and teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that supports processing disturbing memories and reducing their emotional impact through guided bilateral stimulation and structured protocols.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Karen collaborates with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and history, and she tailors recommendations so the chosen method fits the client’s needs. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as scheduling flexibility and easier access to care. Whether sessions occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, these options allow clients to engage in treatment from locations that fit their lives and routines, making it simpler to maintain consistency and move forward with therapy.
