Practical Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Pamela Barrigar integrates structured and supportive methods that translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and day-to-day coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication, offering practical tools for managing intense feelings, anger, and relationship strain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in making room for difficult thoughts and emotions while taking steps toward values-based goals, which can be helpful during life transitions and times of uncertainty.Finding the right approach is not something clients have to figure out alone. Pamela works collaboratively, listening closely and adjusting the focus based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, while drawing from her experience as a licensed professional.
Online therapy also makes it easier to fit support into a busy life. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can also use live chat or text-based messaging. This flexibility can reduce barriers to getting help and allow clients to stay connected to the therapeutic process in a way that fits their routine.
