Approaches to change you can use online
Sheba often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy to help clients make practical changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers simple tools to shift unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and breathing or attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sheba will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. That way the plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most in daily life.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions may fit when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging can help with ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or school routines.
