Online therapy methods
Carmen integrates several structured and experiential approaches in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify personal values and take committed steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and developing concrete skills to change behaviors that interfere with daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers techniques for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Work in these modalities is collaborative. Carmen partners with each person to set goals, select strategies from these approaches, and adapt exercises to fit the individual’s priorities. Sessions conducted remotely can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing the therapeutic work to continue in formats that suit the person’s needs. The combination of methods supports both reflective exploration and practical skill building during remote care.
