Approaches that guide online work and practical support
Dr. Kirschner often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches concrete skills for stress, anxiety, depression, and anger management.She also draws on dialectical behavior ideas to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better ways to handle intense feelings. These tools are helpful when someone wants skills to calm down in the moment and reduce reactivity over time.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past, then tailor the plan as therapy progresses. That collaboration makes it easier to try techniques that fit a person's life and adjust them if needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit sessions into busy days and maintain continuity when life gets hectic.
