Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and difficulties with motivation or self-esteem.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It can be especially useful for people struggling with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or chronic stress.
Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance practices that reduce reactivity and support greater self-compassion. These techniques can complement other therapies when working on social anxiety, self-love, and coping with life changes.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tanya works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges, and then adapts methods to fit what will be most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so people can access care that fits their schedule and comfort level. This flexibility makes it easier to maintain consistent work on goals while balancing family, work, and other responsibilities.
