It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulty managing strong emotions.Her approach is collaborative. She will work with each person to choose techniques that fit their needs and goals. Together they decide what to try first and how to measure progress so adjustments can be made along the way.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow check-ins during breaks, and make scheduling more flexible.
