Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Dr. Robbins draws on several established therapeutic approaches that translate well to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about their lives, creating space to reframe identity, relationships, and responses to loss or major life changes. Internal Family Systems (IFS) invites clients to explore internal parts and the roles they play, which can be useful for issues like self-esteem, shame, and complex emotional patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Dr. Robbins works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend elements from different models to tailor care to each client.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy or geographically dispersed clients. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility to meet at times that suit a client's schedule and to continue work through life transitions. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in care while fitting therapy into daily routines.
