Online support
How approaches like CBT and Gottman work online
Tina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior patterns that increase anxiety or depression. CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to try between meetings so progress continues outside of calls.For relationship work she draws on principles from the Gottman Method to improve communication, reduce conflict cycles, and rebuild connection. She pairs that with mindfulness techniques that teach attention and emotion regulation skills useful during heated moments.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on skill-building, problem solving, or relationship repair and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are delivered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options. Video is ideal for full conversations and exercises, phone works with lower bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging can support ongoing coaching between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
