Therapeutic approaches for online healing and growth

Emily integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to support clients in online sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping people feel heard as they explore values, goals, and emotional experience. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT combines acceptance and change strategies, offering tools for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsivity, and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself, and Emily partners with clients to identify which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that can adapt over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can happen by video call or phone, and many clients also find value in live chat or text-based messaging for check-ins and support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit consistent care into busy schedules and to maintain continuity when in-person visits are not practical.
