Approaches that guide online care

Teresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and build new routines. CBT usually involves short experiments and practical homework to test different ways of thinking and acting. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which prioritizes listening, validation, and following each person’s pace and priorities.

When trauma is part of the problem, Teresa can incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address distressing memories alongside mindfulness tools to support emotional regulation. Each approach is presented as an option, and the therapist works together with clients to decide what fits best based on goals and comfort level.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls allow a session that closely resembles in-person work, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These formats increase flexibility and help clients maintain consistent contact while building new skills.
