How her approaches translate to online care

CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new behaviors to reduce worry and depression. Online sessions can be used to learn the skill steps and try them between meetings. DBT focuses on emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, supporting people who feel overwhelmed or reactive; those skills can be practiced in real life and then reviewed in sessions to refine them. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Latrice will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She treats the choice as flexible and will adjust approaches as progress is made. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow regular check-ins during life transitions. Some people find video or phone sessions better for shorter check-ins or when schedules are tight, while others prefer longer meetings to practice skills. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and goals.
