How CBT and DBT guide online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits, which can help with anger, anxiety, and low mood. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for anger and intense stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine techniques based on the person's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can be adjusted over time if a different emphasis or new skills seem a better fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for skills practice, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules while keeping the focus on usable tools and steady progress.
