Online options and therapeutic approaches
Norma offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow sessions to focus on the tools and conversations that a client finds most helpful while maintaining continuity of care from her Texas practice. Communication formats can be chosen based on preference for real-time conversation or shorter, message-based exchanges.
Her work frequently integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to assist clients who want concrete skills for managing mood, anxiety, or stress. CBT provides a framework for identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, while DBT offers strategies for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. Mindfulness techniques are woven into both approaches to support present-moment awareness and distress tolerance.
Narrative Therapy and client-centered principles guide conversations about personal stories and goals. Clients who wish to explore meaning and reorganize the narratives that shape their relationships and self-image may find this collaborative style a good fit. Sessions by video, phone, chat, or messaging can be arranged according to the client’s needs.
