How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Marcus often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small experiments to change mood and behavior. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and improve communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, symptoms, and what feels comfortable. Plans can be adjusted as needs change.

Confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support using homework tools, worksheets, and mindfulness practices between sessions to keep progress moving forward.
