Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Veronica Carter draws from well-established therapeutic approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for people struggling with intense emotions or relationship conflicts. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact, often used when trauma or abuse are central concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Veronica works with clients and licensed professionals to assess needs, clarify goals, and decide which combination of methods is most likely to help. That collaborative exploration helps ensure that therapy fits each person's values and preferences.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins can be arranged via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, and other commitments, and allow therapists and clients to focus on meaningful progress in ways that suit the client’s schedule and communication style.
