Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Chloe frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress or low mood, then practices concrete strategies to shift those patterns and build more effective habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she applies; it focuses on clarifying personal values and learning to take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Chloe works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from these models to match the individual rather than expecting a single method to suit everyone.
Online therapy with Chloe is offered by licensed professionals through flexible formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent care around work, family, and other commitments, allowing therapy to fit into a client’s life while maintaining continuity and regular progress.
