Remote care tailored to goals and life circumstances
Dr. Carmen Arbogast offers online sessions that use structured, skills-based work alongside trauma-focused processing. She commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for processing traumatic memories when appropriate. These approaches are presented in clear, stepwise ways so clients can understand the rationale for exercises and practice new skills between sessions.
Mindfulness strategies and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy are added when the focus is on emotional regulation, stress management, or improving communication in relationships. Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy may be used to explore values and personal stories, and to support change when readiness is mixed.
Online appointments are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The combination of methods and communication formats is intended to fit clients who want collaborative, skills-oriented work that can be adapted to their schedule and goals.
