Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Tina Salerno draws from approaches that can be both practical and supportive in an online setting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a steady, empathetic space where clients can clarify what they feel, what they need, and what matters most to them, which can be especially helpful during life transitions, grief, and periods of overwhelm.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice patterns between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and then practice more helpful ways of responding. It is often used for concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, and self-esteem challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skill-building around emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, supporting clients who want tools for managing intense emotions or improving relationship dynamics.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. Tina collaborates with clients to choose strategies that align with their goals, preferences, and current needs, and she can adjust the pace and focus as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexibility without putting life on hold. Clients can connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to get consistent support whether at home, traveling, or managing a busy schedule.
