Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Ingrid integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to change patterns that interfere with daily life.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be especially useful for people who struggle with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or self-destructive coping, offering skills to respond differently in difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Ingrid works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit into busy schedules and varied circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access licensed professionals from home or work, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each step of the process.
