CBT and Solution-Focused Care for Online Counseling

Gayle DuBois uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In simple terms, CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and learning practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and related concerns.

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which concentrates on strengthening what is already working and setting clear, achievable goals. This approach is action-oriented and can be especially useful for coping with life changes, improving relationships, and addressing specific challenges like eating concerns or parenting issues.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Gayle collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living in different parts of Oklahoma. Working with licensed professionals in this format allows many clients to receive consistent, focused support without reorganizing their entire day.
