Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Arielle Shipp uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; this approach is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching coping skills and problem-solving techniques.She also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a structured method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, which can be particularly useful for trauma-related symptoms.
Trauma-Focused Therapy in her work emphasizes understanding how traumatic experiences affect emotions and behavior and focuses on building safety, stabilization, and coping strategies to support recovery.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Arielle works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and tailors treatment plans so the chosen methods fit each person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexible ways to engage in treatment. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and daily life, and allow clients to access therapy from familiar settings while working with licensed professionals and therapists who guide the therapeutic process.
