Remote sessions: structure and methods
Warthen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and adjust patterns of thinking and behavior. In accessible, structured sessions she and the client set specific goals and practice skills that address stress, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. CBT work can include short exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments that are tailored to each person's needs.
She is also certified in the PEERS curriculum developed at UCLA, which focuses on building social skills through coached practice and role-play for children and adolescents living with ASD or ADHD. PEERS offers concrete strategies for making and keeping friendships, managing social anxiety, and improving communication.
These approaches are offered via video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients and families to choose the communication method that best fits their routine. Clients looking for structured skill-building and collaborative homework-style practice may find her approach a match.
