Therapeutic approaches and online care
Tamika uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change the behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, often useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress. She also teaches dialectical behavior therapy skills that focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques can help people who struggle with intense emotions or anger.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamika will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy makes regular work on goals easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues during sessions, phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging can help with brief coaching or skill reminders. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, shorter follow-ups, and ongoing skill practice between meetings.
