Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Tressa commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy, and she also draws on motivational interviewing when appropriate. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and breathing or attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, which can be useful for issues like lifestyle shifts, parenting goals, or career transitions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tressa works with each client to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most effective, adjusting techniques over time so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregivers, people with mobility or health limitations, and those balancing work and family. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations, while still receiving structured therapeutic support tailored to individual needs.
