Background and approach
That might mean learning ways to handle strong emotions, changing habits that feed an eating problem, or finding strategies to reduce distractibility and improve daily routines. Her background spans many settings over 35 years as a clinician. Dr.
Zaslove holds the license CA Psychologist 13358 and has worked with people facing depression, trauma and grief, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those coping with transitions, loneliness, guilt, and issues around forgiveness and life purpose. Therapy with her is collaborative.
She listens first, helps identify practical goals, and then tests approaches that match each person’s needs. Progress is tracked in straightforward ways so conversations stay focused and useful. People who want flexible session formats can use phone, video, chat, or text-based work.
The emphasis is on accessibility and on offering tools clients can use in daily life.
Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Dr. Zaslove draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on problems people face today. One common approach is behavioral skill building, which teaches specific actions and routines to reduce symptoms like anxiety, distractibility, or addictive urges and to improve daily functioning. Another frequently used method is emotion-focused work, which helps people name strong feelings, understand how they influence behavior, and develop safer ways to respond when emotions run high.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That partnership means plans are adjusted over time based on what actually helps.
Online therapy with her offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit those who prefer writing or need quick, on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between sessions.
