Adapting DBT, Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Care Online
Amelia integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and a client-centered approach into online work. DBT focuses on teaching practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness - useful for difficulties with anger, self-harm urges, and emotional reactivity. Mindfulness therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that help reduce overwhelm and support regulation during acute stress. Client-centered therapy prioritizes empathy and collaboration, allowing each person to move at their own pace while exploring how past experiences connect to current challenges.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amelia works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws on her correctional and clinical experience to tailor interventions and to teach skills that translate into everyday life.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility constraints. Therapy can be delivered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and these formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide skills training, grounding exercises, psychoeducation, and guided reflection without requiring in-person visits.
