Approaches and Options for Online Therapeutic Care

Allison draws from several evidence-informed approaches to shape online sessions, starting with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT helps identify and shift thoughts and behaviors that contribute to mood and anxiety concerns, and it is often used for depression, anxiety, and stress-related issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and certain mood or personality-related challenges. Solution-Focused Therapy - this approach centers on clients' strengths and practical steps toward change, helping people set concrete goals and build on what already works in their lives.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Allison collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are adapted over time, blending techniques when appropriate to address presenting concerns.

Online therapy with a licensed professional can offer greater flexibility and easier access to care. Video calls and phone sessions allow for more in-depth conversations, while live chat and text-based messaging can provide timely support and convenience between scheduled appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while maintaining continuity and therapeutic focus.
