Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well to Online Care

Jessenia Aguirre draws from practical, skills-based approaches that often work especially well in an online therapy setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and experimenting with new ways of thinking and responding, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication, supporting clients who feel stuck in intense moods or overwhelming reactions. Solution-Focused Therapy helps identify strengths and small, realistic steps forward, which can be helpful during life transitions or when goals feel hard to reach.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jessenia works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want to change, what has and has not helped before, and what fits their preferences, pace, and day-to-day life.

Online therapy can make support easier to access and simpler to maintain. Sessions may take place through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility. This range of options can be especially helpful when schedules are busy or when clients want consistent support between sessions.
