Therapeutic approaches and online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding. It is often used for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills for changing behavior and mood.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing self-destructive behaviors. It can be especially helpful for people struggling with emotional regulation, self-harm, or patterns of crisis and conflict.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clientsâ strengths and goals, using short-term, goal-oriented strategies to build momentum and small measurable changes. This approach is useful when someone wants targeted, practical steps to address specific problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kirsten will work with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts plans as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and reach support from wherever clients are located within the permitted region.
