Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies to change behavior and improve mood. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with coping.

Motivational Interviewing focuses on enhancing a person’s readiness to change by exploring values, goals, and ambivalence in a nonjudgmental way. This approach can be especially helpful for clients working on habits, addictions, or making major life transitions.

Trauma-Focused Therapy provides structured ways to address traumatic experiences and their effects, helping individuals process memories and build coping skills that support daily functioning. Dr. Whitney Jenerette draws on these methods and works collaboratively with each person to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Dr. Jenerette is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These remote options make it easier to fit sessions into busy routines, maintain ongoing momentum between meetings, and access licensed professionals from wherever the client is located within applicable regions.
