Evidence-based approaches for online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors into more effective habits; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to support intense emotions and relationship challenges. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on processing and integrating traumatic experiences with techniques tailored to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning for people affected by abuse or significant loss.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dianna works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors methods to find the best fit rather than applying a single technique to every situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to attend sessions around work, family, or other commitments, and allow therapists and licensed professionals to deliver consistent, skills-based care without requiring travel to an office.
