Approaches you can use in online sessions

Becky commonly combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can name their goals. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to sort out feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills and short-term exercises that change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and reducing impulsive actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Becky will ask about your goals, what has helped before, and how you prefer to work. Together you will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what fits your life and what feels useful.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible for people outside Louisiana and international clients who speak English to connect. The focus is on practical access and making therapy a sustainable part of everyday life.
