Therapeutic Approaches and How Online Care Works



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and then practice more balanced thinking and healthier actions. It is commonly used for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress management and focuses on concrete skills and change strategies.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, blends skills training in areas such as emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It is especially useful for intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges by teaching practical tools to manage reactions and improve communication.

Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings. This approach supports coping with stress, rumination, and emotional overwhelm by building attention and self-compassion skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria “Antoinette” Walker collaborates with each person to determine which combination of techniques best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care across locations, and choose the communication format that feels most comfortable for each individual.
