Remote care and therapeutic approach
Raylissa uses practical, skills-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help clients identify patterns of thought and behavior and to practice alternative responses. These approaches include structured work on thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and behavioral experiments that clients and therapist plan together.
She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to support values-driven change and present-moment awareness. These approaches emphasize noticing internal experience, clarifying personal values, and making deliberate choices that align with what matters to the client.
Raylissa frames work as collaborative: she and the client set priorities, select strategies from these approaches, and adjust plans over time. Remote sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different communication preferences.How long has Raylissa worked in mental health?
