Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and respond to strong feelings in a clearer way. Online sessions can use this approach to name emotions, track patterns, and practice new responses during conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. In video or text work, CBT techniques include identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying small experiments between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy combines acceptance and change skills to help with intense emotions and impulsive reactions. DBT strategies taught online often include distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness exercises.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamara will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your situation. Together you can adjust techniques over time based on what feels useful and what you want to change.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Video mirrors in-person conversation when a longer session is needed, while phone sessions use less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging can work for quick check-ins, brief skills practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep consistent progress without extra travel time.
