Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Carolyn commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that align with personal values, which can help with stress, anxiety, and anger.Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are also used when someone needs tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT offers step-by-step strategies for managing intense feelings and improving interpersonal effectiveness, useful for people facing frequent emotional ups and downs.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Carolyn helps clients decide which methods fit their goals and personality. She adapts techniques over time and invites feedback so sessions remain practical and focused on real-life change.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice and deeper dialogue. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for brief updates, real-time coaching, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
