Approaches Denise Uses in Online Therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic environment where the client’s priorities guide the work. It helps people who want a supportive space to explore feelings, values, and relationships while building self-direction and confidence.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replaces them with more adaptive patterns. CBT is effective for anxiety, depression, and many common stressors by teaching coping strategies and problem-solving tools.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. It is especially useful for people who experience intense emotions or difficulty managing reactions to stress and conflict.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Denise works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit best with their goals, symptoms, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Offering sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited mobility. Online options allow licensed professionals to provide regular support, practical skills, and continuity of care while accommodating different communication styles and life demands.
