Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Alison often uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process and make sense of distressing events. This approach focuses on addressing the effects of trauma and supporting gradual recovery so daily functioning can improve. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alison works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Alison is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make scheduling easier and increase access from different locations. These options provide flexibility for busy schedules, allow therapy to continue through life transitions, and let clients choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them.
