How online sessions are structured
Rebecca uses a mix of structured skill-building and reflective approaches in remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is presented in practical terms to identify thought and behavior patterns and to develop new skills for managing symptoms. Sessions often include collaborative homework and strategy practice so participants can apply techniques between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These tools are offered in a way that aims to build concrete skills for handling intense feelings and relationship challenges. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to encourage present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity through simple exercises and breath-focused techniques.
Remote appointments are conducted by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences. Rebecca frames the work as collaborative: she and the person she is working with set goals together and select approaches from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, or motivational interviewing to match those goals.
