Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and problems with motivation or coping during life changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It can help clients who struggle with intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship difficulties.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes concrete, short-term goal setting and building on strengths to create change quickly. It is useful for clients who want to focus on practical steps toward career goals, decision making, or resolving specific life challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Brandais will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Brandais offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to access care around work, school, and family commitments. These options allow clients to receive consistent support while maintaining routines and reducing barriers related to travel and scheduling.
