Online support
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Gottman Method work focuses on improving interaction and communication patterns between people. It offers specific exercises for building connection and handling conflict, which translate well to conversation-based sessions and guided at-home practices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and short assignments to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It often includes coaching-style techniques that help people respond differently in tense moments.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dorothy will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. She mixes strategies as needed and adjusts focus over time so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for brief coaching, check-ins between sessions, and written practice assignments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
