Evidence-based approaches and online care
Jane uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on observable changes and practical skills. One approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviors and replace them with healthier alternatives; this is useful for anxiety, low mood, and anger. Another approach emphasizes building routines and coping skills to manage strong emotions and mood swings, which can help with bipolar symptoms, impulsivity, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, challenges, and personal preferences. Then she will suggest strategies to try and adjust them as progress is made, so treatment evolves to fit the client’s needs.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever the client is. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn't desired. Live chat and text sessions make it easier to check in quickly during a busy day. These formats give flexibility to fit therapy into work, family, and other routines.
