Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Melissa Robles draws from several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on processing and resolving the impact of traumatic events, with techniques that help reduce trauma-related symptoms and improve emotional regulation. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting clear goals and identifying strengths and small, practical steps that move a person toward desired changes in relationships, career, or daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Melissa collaborates with each client to evaluate goals, preferences, and life circumstances to determine which methods are most likely to help, and she adapts strategies over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals. Sessions can take place by video calls or phone, and additional options such as live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from home or wherever clients are located.
