How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. Online sessions let Yazmin begin by hearing what matters most and tailoring sessions to those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers simple exercises to shift patterns. In an online visit she can teach and practice these exercises and assign short activities between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication. Those skills work well through video coaching, phone check-ins, or messages for quick coaching during tough moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Yazmin works with each person to identify reasonable goals and then tests methods together. She checks in regularly to see what helps and adjusts the plan based on real progress and client preference.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let most conversations feel like an in-person visit while fitting into busy schedules. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief updates, coping prompts, and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain consistency and practice new skills in everyday life.
