Evidence-based approaches for online care

Alice Sherbow uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to help clients change unhelpful patterns and build practical skills. She often focuses on cognitive and behavioral strategies that help people notice thoughts and behaviors, practice new ways of responding, and reduce symptoms of depression or addiction.

Because relationships and family dynamics are central to many concerns, her work also draws on relational and systems-informed techniques that explore how interaction patterns affect feelings, choices, and recovery. These approaches are designed to address relationship struggles, communication problems, and issues rooted in family of origin dynamics.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Alice works collaboratively with each client to identify goals, try interventions, and refine the plan over time to suit the client’s needs, preferences, and life circumstances.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain momentum between sessions, and access consistent support from a licensed professional regardless of location within California.
