Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Brenda commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration - the therapist listens carefully and supports the client in exploring values and goals to build self-directed change. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to shift those patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques when clients need concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. DBT combines acceptance with skills training to help individuals manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Brenda works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors methods so therapy feels like a good fit. Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations, offering flexibility for scheduling, continuity of care during life transitions, and the ability to engage in therapy in ways that match each person’s comfort and routine.
