Therapeutic Approaches and Online Therapy

Josette integrates several approaches that translate well to online care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic. It is often used to address stress, mood concerns, and many forms of trauma-related distress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be helpful for people managing intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship challenges and provides concrete coping strategies that can be practiced between sessions.

Attachment-Based Therapy attends to patterns in relationships and how early connections influence current emotional responses. This approach can support healing from abandonment, codependency, and attachment-related difficulties by exploring relational patterns and building more secure ways of relating.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Josette works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and access from different locations. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, practice new skills in daily life, and receive timely support when challenges arise.
