Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and build practical skills to manage symptoms such as anxiety and depression. It focuses on changing thinking and behavior in clear, goal-oriented steps to improve daily functioning.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused approach that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity. It is often used for post-traumatic stress and intense trauma-related reactions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills. It is useful for managing strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties.
