Online sessions, practical skills, and systems-oriented work
Kyana offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She describes therapy as a collaborative journey and frames online meetings as an extension of that partnership, with options to match communication preference and need.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, a model Kyana has trained in and used in group and individual formats, emphasizes practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. In remote sessions these skills can be taught, practiced, and reviewed together using interactive conversation and written exercises.
A family systems perspective and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are also reflected in her work. Family systems language helps map relationships and patterns, while TF-CBT provides a trauma-informed structure for addressing specific traumatic experiences. Prospective participants can discuss which combination of these methods feels like the best fit during an initial conversation.
