Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Nancy Martinez draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to shape online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's own goals and lived experience, creating space for self-exploration and emotional expression and is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions. CBT is a structured approach that examines patterns of thought and behavior, helping people address anxiety, depression, and mood-related symptoms through practical skills and problem-solving. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, self-harm risk, and difficulties with relationships.

Determining the best approach is a collaborative process. Nancy works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and specific needs, and then tailors techniques from these modalities to fit each person. The choice of method can evolve over time as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Nancy can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, limited mobility, or geographic constraints. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from home or another convenient location while maintaining continuity of care and adapting to changing needs.
