Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online

Clariza Scarlett Saint George, LCSW, uses evidence-based approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and building practical skills to respond differently, which can be especially useful for concerns like anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and navigating everyday stressors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can help clients who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or who want clearer, steadier ways to handle conflict, boundaries, and relationship dynamics.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most to them. This approach can be helpful during life transitions and personal growth work, especially when clients want their coping strategies to align with their values.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Clariza collaborates with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting the work over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible options, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access support in a way that fits real-life schedules and communication styles.
