Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Jaime commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and she incorporates Narrative Therapy when helpful. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT teaches emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for intense feelings and impulsivity. Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and try alternative, more helpful interpretations.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jaime will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to decide which methods to try. She adapts techniques to match a person’s daily routines and the pace they want to move at.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and skill teaching, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can support quick check-ins, homework, or mid-week skills practice. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep skills practice consistent between sessions.
