How Deborah’s approaches guide online therapy

Deborah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice the thoughts and habits that keep problems going, then practice new ways of thinking and acting. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and life stress because it focuses on concrete steps and homework-like practice.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. DBT-style skills can be useful when feelings feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Deborah collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in as treatment progresses and adjusts tools or pacing based on what helps most.
