Approaches That Guide Online Therapy

Desirre uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns so clients can reduce symptoms like anxiety and build effective coping strategies. Mindfulness Therapy is another core element - it emphasizes present-moment awareness and practical exercises that can lower stress and improve emotional regulation by teaching clients how to notice thoughts and feelings without judgment. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a collaborative conversation style that strengthens a person's own motivation to make meaningful changes, making it useful for improving commitment to goals such as career shifts or healthier relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Desirre works with clients to tailor methods to individual needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative decision-making helps ensure the tools chosen match the client’s values and daily life.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can access licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel, making it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into a busy schedule.
