Approaches you can use through online sessions
Tanisha often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT helps people learn practical techniques to reduce worry, improve sleep, and manage mood swings.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy for skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal interactions. DBT is useful for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges to choose which methods to try first. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time based on what works for the person.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat or text messaging work well for brief updates, quick coping reminders, or when typing feels simpler than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between appointments.
