How therapy approaches translate to online care

Georgette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT focuses on practical steps and experiments you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change addictive patterns.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. DBT-style skills can be useful for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Georgette collaborates with each person to choose techniques based on goals, needs, and what feels most useful. She checks in and adjusts methods as progress is tracked.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good when visual cues help the work, phone calls use less bandwidth, live chat and messaging allow quick check-ins or written reflections, and text can be useful for brief coaching or reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings.
