How Denise’s approaches translate to online therapy
Denise often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT can be useful for worries, low mood, and managing attention challenges like ADHD by breaking problems into step-by-step tasks.She also integrates dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-style techniques teach concrete coping skills to handle strong feelings, manage anger, and reduce impulsive reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress is made so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls work well for skills practice and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions, share brief updates, or use therapy without being on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still using CBT, DBT, or solution-focused techniques.
