Remote sessions and therapeutic methods
Carolyn provides online care using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow people to connect in a format that fits their schedule and communication preferences while using the same therapeutic approaches she applies in person. Communication methods are offered so that practical needs and comfort are part of deciding how to work together.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop concrete strategies for change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skill-building in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for people who benefit from structured tools. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental stance that helps individuals explore their values and goals at a comfortable pace.
Sessions are collaborative: Carolyn and the client set goals, choose which approaches to emphasize, and adjust plans as progress unfolds. Available remote formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match the therapeutic process to a person’s needs.
