Online support

How her approaches fit online therapy

Alyssa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework aimed at practical goals like reducing worry or improving sleep.

She also brings in dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These are concrete skills that can be practiced in real time and reviewed together. For trauma-related work, Alyssa may use EMDR as one method to help process distressing memories alongside other supports.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods over time so they match the client's needs. The process is collaborative and paced to what the client can handle.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for longer therapy sessions and skill practice, while phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging allow for brief check-ins, quick coaching moments, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and other life demands.
