Therapeutic approaches and online care
Dolores draws from several evidence-informed approaches to support clients in addressing stress, anxiety, trauma, and related concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to take action guided by personal values - a helpful framework for managing avoidance, worry, and low motivation.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental stance, creating space for self-exploration and strengthening self esteem. This approach helps people feel heard and supported as they clarify their goals and sense of identity.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with skills that reduce distress and improve functioning. CBT techniques are often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and situational stress.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Dolores works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Remote options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to receive ongoing support from licensed professionals without the need for travel.
