Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Dr. Gaye Cameron uses approaches that translate well to remote work and help people address difficult emotions and relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and disruptive habits by teaching practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for managing intense emotions and improving communication in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s own goals and perspective, offering empathic support and collaboration so people can explore their values and make decisions that feel right for them.

Finding the right fit is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Cameron works collaboratively with each person to clarify needs, test different strategies and choose the approaches that best align with their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy brings practical benefits for many people - it increases flexibility around scheduling, removes travel barriers and allows sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. These options help licensed professionals and therapists maintain continuity of care and adapt to what works best for each person’s life and circumstances.
