Background and approach

Work often includes building problem-solving skills and improving emotional regulation. Sabrina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to break down difficult patterns. Mindfulness practices are used to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed.

Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide short-term goal setting and steps toward change. Sessions focus on what matters most to each person. That might be improving communication, addressing codependency, or working through family problems that affect daily life.

She also supports clients dealing with grief, low self-esteem, and the challenges of parenting. Sabrina keeps language simple and concrete in sessions. She listens for strengths and helps people use those strengths to reach small, manageable goals.

Her style aims to be collaborative and practical so progress can be seen between appointments.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. It helps with anxiety, depression, and day-to-day problems by changing thinking and behavior patterns. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills in clear steps. It is useful for intense emotions, anger, and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and try methods that match what you need. Decisions about techniques and homework are made collaboratively and adjusted as progress is seen.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can fit into busy days for quick support or ongoing homework review. These formats make it easier to get regular support without long travel, while still using CBT and DBT skills in real life.
