How Client-Centered Work, CBT, and DBT Translate to Online Care

Amy integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship that helps clients identify and pursue their personal goals; it is often useful for self-esteem, relationship concerns, and navigating life transitions.

CBT helps clients notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, making it a practical option for anxiety, depression, and many everyday coping challenges. DBT emphasizes skills for regulating intense emotions, managing impulsivity, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can benefit people dealing with anger, impulsivity, or high emotional reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adapts techniques over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility to engage in care from different locations and life circumstances. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support while accommodating scheduling, mobility, and varying communication preferences.
