Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Larissa integrates several evidence-based approaches into her online practice to meet each client's unique needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present - it is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current behavior and emotional responses, supporting work on relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, and attachment wounds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns, which can be useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with change.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Larissa works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she tailors techniques from these therapies to create a practical plan that fits the person in front of her.
Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to meet by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to schedule care around work, family, and daily life, and allows licensed professionals to maintain continuity of support when in-person visits are not feasible.
