Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and then develop practical strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and habit-related concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and reducing the ongoing impact of traumatic experiences, helping people develop skills to manage symptoms and rebuild a sense of safety and stability. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skill-building in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness to support people who struggle with intense emotions, relationship challenges, or self-destructive behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Melody works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws on these methods and tailors the work so that therapy aligns with each person's values and daily life.
Online therapy with Melody is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to access licensed professionals from home or elsewhere, accommodate busy routines, and maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are not practical.
