Approaches for Online Therapy and Emotional Work
Rebecca integrates several therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often used for histories of abuse or significant trauma. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and reshaping emotional responses within relationships, making it useful for couples work and attachment-related concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, mood symptoms, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rebecca works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time based on what proves most helpful. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine elements from different approaches to tailor care to the individual.
