How therapy approaches translate to online care

Denise commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based methods. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can relieve anxiety, panic, and mood swings. Mindfulness helps people notice their thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away, useful for stress, rumination, and coping with grief.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person's own priorities lead the work. That approach supports clearer goals and helps people feel heard while they try new ways of handling problems. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process; Denise will work with each person to decide what fits their needs and goals and adjust as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is good for longer talking sessions and skill practice, while phone calls may be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can work for brief check-ins, written coaching, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping treatment focused and goal-oriented.
