Practical approaches you can use online
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits that feed anxiety or low mood. It often includes concrete exercises and experiments you can try between sessions to see what helps. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and managing conflict in close relationships by teaching specific skills for connection and repair.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That may mean combining short-term solution-focused steps with CBT tools or adding mindfulness practices when stress or emotion regulation is a focus.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a break at work or when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messages work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent while fitting it into busy schedules.
