Online session formats and approaches
Tierra offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She frames online work within a client-centered and identity-centered stance, tailoring dialog and a treatment plan to each person’s needs and preferences while communicating with sensitivity and respect.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and work with thought and behavior patterns that contribute to distress. In accessible terms, CBT helps people notice unhelpful patterns and practice alternative skills and strategies in day-to-day life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based techniques are also part of the approach. DBT-informed work emphasizes skills for managing emotions and impulsivity, while mindfulness methods focus on present-moment awareness and grounding. Tierra describes the work as collaborative: she and the person together decide which methods to emphasize and how to use the available online formats.How many years of clinical experience does Tierra have?
