Teletherapy approaches and options
Markyse offers online care that combines client-centered therapy with structured skill work. Client-centered therapy prioritizes the person’s experience and personal goals, providing a space for open expression and collaborative planning. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress and mood difficulties and translates into concrete strategies to try between sessions.
She also integrates elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and present-moment awareness. Motivational interviewing is used when exploring change around substance use or other ambivalent goals. Clients who prefer a mix of empathic listening and practical tools may find this combination a good fit.
Sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to choose the communication style that best fits their needs while working through identified concerns.
