Online sessions with structured trauma and skills work
Barbara provides distance sessions that combine trauma-focused and skills-based methods. She uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients notice unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior and to practice alternatives that reduce distress. In parallel, dialectical behavior therapy informed techniques support emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating strong feelings without acting impulsively.
For clients with histories of traumatic memories, she offers eye movement desensitization and reprocessing to address distress linked to past events, alongside body-centered somatic and mindfulness practices to help calm physiological responses. Sessions are collaborative: goals, pacing, and specific techniques are chosen together so the work fits the client’s needs and readiness.
Barbara meets with clients using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow for ongoing skill practice, check-ins, and more traditional psychotherapy work while maintaining continuity across different communication preferences.
