Skills-based therapy, adapted for online support
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a structured, skills-focused approach that helps people manage intense emotions, reduce overwhelm, and respond more effectively to stress. It often emphasizes practical tools like mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation, which can be especially helpful when anxiety, mood shifts, or life changes start to feel unmanageable.Solution-Focused Therapy keeps sessions oriented around what you want to be different and the steps that can move you there. Rather than spending all the time on what is going wrong, it highlights strengths, small wins, and realistic next actions, which can support motivation, confidence, and forward momentum during challenging periods.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Betty Gannon works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand what has and has not helped in the past, and choose strategies that fit each person’s needs and preferences, adjusting as progress unfolds.
Online therapy can make it easier to stay consistent with care. With options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can select the format that best matches their schedule, energy level, and communication style.
