Evidence-Based Tools, Adapted for Online Therapy

Alexandra Barchitta integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a multicultural feminist framework, with options to meet online in ways that fit everyday life.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In sessions, clients practice noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and experimenting with more supportive coping strategies, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns.

Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness. This structured approach can help clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck in intense emotions, or caught in recurring interpersonal patterns. Alexandra also incorporates motivational interviewing (MI), a collaborative style that helps clients clarify goals and strengthen readiness for change, including around substance use and other habits that are hard to shift.

Because no single approach fits everyone, Alexandra works collaboratively with clients to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to stay consistent and access support from a comfortable setting.
