How Kennedy Uses Skills-Based Therapy Online
Kennedy commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking that lead to unwanted feelings or actions and then testing small behavior changes to see what helps. DBT offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness for people who feel overwhelmed.She treats choosing an approach as a team effort. The therapist listens to your goals and preferences, then suggests techniques to try. Progress is reviewed together and approaches can be adjusted based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let you see and hear each other for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, and getting timely skill reminders between meetings.
These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, keep momentum between sessions, and practice new skills in real time.
