Approaches, Online Care, and Flexible Therapy Options

Nanette integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Trauma-Focused approaches to meet a range of concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors - it is often used for anxiety, stress, and challenges with motivation or self-esteem. Mindfulness therapy involves learning present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance techniques to reduce reactivity and improve coping with difficult emotions. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing the impact of traumatic experiences, helping people reduce symptoms and regain a sense of safety and agency.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Nanette works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors methods over time, combining strategies and adjusting pace so therapy feels purposeful and sustainable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and support can continue through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations.
