Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Yvonne combines evidence-informed methods that adapt effectively to remote care. EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that helps people reprocess distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity through guided bilateral stimulation and structured processing; it can be used to address past traumatic events and their ongoing effects. Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to help clients manage intense feelings and improve relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, and everyday stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Yvonne works collaboratively with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and to tailor techniques that fit each person’s situation. This process may involve trying different strategies and refining the plan together.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexible access to care, making it easier to connect from home, during breaks, or while balancing family and work. These options offer practical ways to maintain continuity of treatment and to practice skills in real-life contexts with the support of a licensed professional.
