Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Susanna commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based techniques. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and anger. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve focus.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when difficult emotions are present. Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past to shape a clear plan together.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options. Video calls suit deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter check-ins or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
