Online Therapy Approach
Dina Garza uses several structured approaches that translate to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify patterns of thought and behavior and then develops practical strategies to change them. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the effects of traumatic events and sequences interventions to reduce ongoing distress and improve day-to-day functioning. The Gottman Method offers a framework for addressing communication and patterns within relationships, focusing on concrete skills and interactional habits.
She approaches online sessions as a collaborative process, partnering with people to set clear goals, select techniques that fit their needs, and track progress over time. Mindfulness practices and Solution-Focused techniques are also available to support coping, present-moment awareness, and short-term goal attainment. Services are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences and circumstances.
