Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Work, and CBT Online
Debra Sarno integrates several established approaches into online sessions to meet a range of client needs. Mindfulness-Based Therapy teaches skills in present-moment awareness and stress reduction, helping people notice thoughts and feelings with less reactivity. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and practical steps toward change, making it useful when clients want tangible progress in a shorter time frame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and offers structured strategies to shift unhelpful patterns and build coping skills.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Debra works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adapting methods over time so the work fits the client rather than the other way around. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to match individual needs, and Debra follows that same flexible, client-centered practice.
Online therapy with Debra can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access sessions from home or work, and integrate therapeutic work into everyday life.
