Remote care using evidence-informed approaches
Arlene offers online work that uses structured methods alongside relational attention. In remote sessions she brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought and behavior and to teach concrete strategies for symptom management. Sessions using CBT often focus on practical exercises and collaborative goal setting.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy is available for people who want to cultivate emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. DBT-style work emphasizes learning and practicing skills in the context of real-life situations. Motivational Interviewing is used when ambivalence about change is present; this approach centers on drawing out a person’s own reasons for change and supporting steps toward those goals.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This mix of methods and communication modes is intended to fit different preferences for structure, skills practice, and conversational work, with the therapist and client choosing the combination that best supports their collaboration.
