Using CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness online
Christina often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change the thoughts that keep them stuck. CBT breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so clients can practice different responses and see clear progress.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal effectiveness. DBT tools can help when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained. Mindfulness Therapy is woven in to help people stay present, reduce reactivity, and notice patterns without judgment.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each client about goals and test which methods fit best. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most for the person’s priorities and daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text based messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video calls let people work face to face from their chosen location, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat is useful for shorter check ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and travel schedules while using the clinical approaches that best match each person’s needs.
