Online sessions and therapeutic approaches



Ossnat Tovia offers online sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She adapts the format to the needs and preferences of each person, pairing communication options with clinical strategies to support ongoing work between meetings.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop practical skills for managing mood, attention, and anxiety. Sessions using CBT tend to focus on specific goals, clear steps to practice between meetings, and measuring progress in concrete ways.

Mindfulness Therapy is used to increase present-moment awareness and calm response to stress, while Psychodynamic Therapy explores recurring relational patterns and early influences that shape current difficulties. Tovia combines these approaches in collaboration with the individual to determine which methods best fit their concerns and preferences, and she adjusts the balance of skill-building and exploration over time.
