How CBT and EMDR work in online sessions

Victoria uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. CBT sessions often involve setting small goals, practicing new skills between meetings, and reviewing what worked and what didn’t. EMDR is used to process upsetting memories by pairing focused attention with guided stimulation; it can help reduce the emotional intensity of past events when it fits a client's needs.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences and recommend CBT, EMDR, or a blend based on what seems most likely to help. That plan can change as therapy progresses and as new priorities emerge.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets the therapist and client work closely on skills and emotional processing. Phone sessions are useful when a shorter check-in or less bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be helpful for quick support, homework check-ins, or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical needs while maintaining continuity of care.
