Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support and Skills Building
Tina draws on client-centered therapy to create a warm, empathic space where individuals feel heard and respected; this approach emphasizes the client's perspective and is helpful for people coping with grief, life transitions, or feelings of isolation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression.
She also incorporates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills when strong emotions or relationship conflicts are present. These approaches are presented in clear, actionable steps so clients can apply them between sessions.
Finding the right combination of methods is part of the collaborative process. Tina works with each person to determine which approaches best match their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these formats to deliver consistent, skill-focused work that adapts to each client's circumstances.
