Practical therapy approaches for online care
Chanel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain distress. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and coping with life changes.She also teaches Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. DBT skills can be useful when intense emotions, relationship conflict, or impulse-related difficulties get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chanel will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps the person make steady progress.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and exercises; phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people share thoughts between meetings and use written tools for ongoing support. These formats make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into a busy life.
