Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

In online work Cinda Salas draws on established, practical approaches to help clients clarify goals and learn new skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more adaptive patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - tools that can help with intense emotions, relationship struggles, and impulse-related concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying strengths and small, concrete steps toward change, which can be useful when clients want short-term, goal-oriented progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what matters most to each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and access support from home or other convenient locations. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide consistent, skill-based work that adapts to each client's life.
