How approaches like CBT, DBT and Mindfulness help online

Dr. Allen commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT focuses on simple behavior and thought changes that reduce anger, anxiety, or low mood over weeks of practice.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for teaching emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. DBT offers step-by-step strategies for managing intense feelings and improving interactions with others. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build present-moment awareness and calm the body, which can lessen reactivity.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss these methods with each person and pick or blend them based on goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering sessions that match a person’s daily routine. Licensed professionals can guide the pacing of skill work and homework so tools get used between sessions rather than only in the therapy hour.
