Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Debi uses the Gottman Method to help people improve communication, manage conflict, and rebuild connection through structured conversations and practical exercises that can be practiced between sessions. The Gottman Method focuses on patterns and small skills that change daily interactions and supports goals around relationship stress and intimacy-related concerns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the session on the person's experience and priorities. That approach involves reflective listening and pacing to make sure the therapist follows what matters to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another frequent tool, where the work identifies unhelpful thinking and tests new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client, and adjust the plan as needs change. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques feel most helpful.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for different schedules and needs - video for face-to-face interaction, phone for lower bandwidth, chat for shorter check-ins, and messaging for ongoing support between meetings. Many people find the mix makes it easier to keep momentum and try new skills in daily life.
