Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Markyse draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to guide online work in ways that fit each person s needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on providing empathy, respect, and support so a person can explore their own goals and values and build self-understanding. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical tools to change unhelpful patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress. Dialectical behavior therapy combines acceptance and change strategies and teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be especially useful for intense emotions and interpersonal conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Markyse collaborates with each client to identify which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adjusts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people balancing work, family, or geographic limitations. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care, attend sessions from familiar surroundings, and use brief check-ins or messaging between longer appointments when needed, all while working with licensed professionals and therapists trained to adapt their methods for remote support.
