Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well to Online Sessions

Deborah Coppersmith draws from approaches that can be especially practical in online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful space where clients can explore emotions and experiences at their own pace, which can be helpful for stress, self-esteem concerns, and major life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another, then practice new ways of responding. It is often used to build coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stressors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, supporting people who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or stuck in unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Deborah works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want to change, what has or has not helped before, and what style of support feels most useful, then adjusts the focus over time as goals evolve.

Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, continue support during life transitions, and stay engaged between sessions in a way that matches each client’s preferences.
