Evidence-Based Tools, Delivered Through Online Therapy
Joanna Perez uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients work through anxiety, trauma, and patterns that feel hard to break. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another, and it can be especially useful when worry, panic, or self-doubt start to take over day-to-day life.She also incorporates DBT-informed skills, which emphasize practical strategies for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and building steadier coping habits in the moment. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is another approach she draws on, helping clients explore ambivalence, strengthen motivation, and make changes that align with their values at a pace that feels realistic.
Because people and situations differ, finding the right approach is part of the process. Joanna Perez works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, identify what is most helpful, and adjust strategies based on preferences and progress over time.
