Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care

Rashard Pearson uses evidence-based cognitive and skills-based strategies that help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete coping techniques. These approaches are useful for managing anxiety, stress, anger, and day-to-day mood concerns by teaching practical problem solving and emotional regulation skills.
