How therapeutic approaches are used online

Jennifer often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT focuses on simple, concrete exercises people can practice between sessions to reduce anxiety, anger, or low mood.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT offers short, teachable techniques for managing intense feelings and improving communication in stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort, and daily life. She adjusts tools and pacing as progress is made so the plan fits real needs.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as current options are set by the practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and keep appointments during life transitions. It also allows sessions to focus on skills practice, homework review, and check-ins that move change forward without asking for major time commitments.
