Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jaime frequently draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Narrative Therapy to help clients make meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness, making it useful for intense emotions, relationship struggles, and impulse-related challenges. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe and make sense of their life stories by separating problems from identity and exploring alternative, more empowered narratives.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jaime works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life context, and then tailors methods from these approaches to fit each person’s needs rather than applying any single model rigidly. This partnership helps identify what works best and allows adjustments over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to access care around work, family, and other commitments. For many people, remote options increase consistency and comfort while still allowing licensed professionals and therapists to deliver structured, effective support.
