Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Debora Van Romer draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to support clients through online sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people build more secure connections, which can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and family-of-origin concerns. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. EFT centers on emotions within close relationships and helps partners and individuals better understand and transform interaction patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Van Romer collaborates with each person to determine which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques over time based on progress and feedback so care feels relevant and responsive.

Online therapy with Van Romer is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or another convenient location while maintaining consistent engagement in the work of therapy.
