Remote sessions using evidence-informed approaches
Carmen integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered principles into online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is presented in accessible terms as a way to clarify personal values and take committed steps toward them, even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress and introducing practical skills to shift those patterns. Client-Centered techniques prioritize the person’s perspective, offering empathic listening and collaboration to help people feel understood as they explore change.
For clients who want goal-focused conversations, Carmen can incorporate elements of Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques to build momentum and identify next steps. She frames remote sessions as collaborative: clients and clinician define goals together and select tools that fit daily life. Online appointments are available by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences.
