Therapeutic approaches and online delivery

Lisa commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based practices in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when needed, teaching concrete skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation. Decisions about which approach to use are made together. The therapist and client talk about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the person’s needs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are good for brief check-ins, skill coaching, or notes between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain steady progress over time.
