How CBT and EMDR can work online

Marcela uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new habits. CBT sessions typically include short exercises, thought records, and practical homework that translate well to video or messaging formats.

She also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for those coping with distressing memories. EMDR involves guided processing of difficult memories and can be adapted to online sessions with careful pacing and regular check-ins.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Marcela will help clients choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan based on progress and feedback.

Online formats offer flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simple to keep momentum between meetings and to fit support into a busy day. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to use the style of communication that feels most helpful.
