Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist supports the client in exploring their values and goals and developing their own solutions.



Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Aritha works collaboratively with clients - listening to their needs, explaining options, and adapting methods so the plan aligns with each person’s goals and preferences. Together they determine which techniques are most helpful for the situation at hand.



Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessibility and flexibility. Sessions by video or phone let clients meet with licensed professionals from home, while live chat and text-based messaging provide additional options for ongoing support between scheduled appointments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain consistency in care, regardless of location.
