VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Utilizing CBT will help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors, aiming to replace them with healthier ones through various techniques such as cognitive restructuring, behavior modification, and skill-building exercises.
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
The use of CPT guides you through structured discussions and exercises to help you confront and reframe traumatic experiences, aiming to alleviate distress by addressing maladaptive beliefs and coping strategies related to the trauma.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Using ACT will assist you in fostering psychological flexibility by encouraging you to acknowledge and accept your thoughts and feelings, while also helping you clarify your values and commit to actions aligned with those values, ultimately promoting personal growth and well-being.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
During a dialectical behavior therapy session, we will employ a combination of acceptance and change strategies to help you develop mindfulness skills, regulate emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and enhance distress tolerance, fostering a balance between acceptance of current circumstances and the pursuit of positive change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
We will use mindfulness-based therapy to cultivate present moment awareness through mindfulness practices such as meditation and focused breathing exercises, fostering self-compassion and non-judgmental observation of thoughts and emotions, ultimately promoting psychological well-being and resilience.
