Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support and Growth

Destini Haggen draws from client-centered therapy to place the client’s experience at the heart of the work - the therapist offers empathic listening and collaborative reflection to help clients explore values, strengths, and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be effective for stress, anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides concrete skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are helpful for strong emotions, relationship difficulties, and impulsive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Destini works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors strategies over time so the plan evolves with the client’s progress.

Online therapy with Destini offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to access support around work, family, and daily life. Working with licensed professionals in these formats can increase convenience and maintain continuity of care while allowing therapists and clients to focus on practical tools and meaningful change.
