Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify patterns of thinking that contribute to distress and teaches practical skills to change those patterns and manage symptoms in daily life. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and related challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines acceptance and change strategies to improve emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - it can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and self-destructive behaviors. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a trauma-informed approach that supports processing of traumatic memories and reducing their emotional charge, often used when past events continue to affect present functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Gail works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and tools so that therapy feels relevant and manageable, adjusting the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. For many people, these options make it easier to maintain consistency, access support from home or work, and integrate therapeutic skills into everyday life with greater ease.
