Evidence-informed approaches, delivered through online care

Dr. Kimberly Deus Sullivan draws from several established therapy methods and adapts them to fit each client’s goals and day-to-day realities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication, supporting clients who feel overwhelmed or stuck in intense reactions. She also incorporates mindfulness-based therapy, which helps clients build present-moment awareness and develop steadier ways to relate to thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Sullivan collaborates with clients to clarify what they want from therapy, what has or has not worked before, and which tools feel most natural to practice. Over time, the plan can shift as needs change, so therapy stays relevant and purposeful.

Online therapy can make it easier to get consistent support without the added stress of travel or tight scheduling. Clients can connect with Dr. Sullivan through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for busy weeks, family responsibilities, school demands, or changing energy levels.
