Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Norma uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to guide her work in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the pace of exploration and the therapist offers empathy and support - it is often helpful for building self-awareness, confidence, and relationship repair. CBT helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. DBT teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness, which can be especially useful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and chronic stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Norma works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques from these models to create a tailored plan that fits each person's situation.
Online therapy with Norma is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options allow clients to schedule sessions around work, family, and life demands, and to maintain continuity of care even when in-person visits are impractical. Licensed professionals can effectively deliver the therapeutic strategies described above across these remote formats, making it possible to progress toward goals from a distance.
