Therapeutic tools that translate well to online sessions

Tonya Wibbenmeyer draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can be adapted to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building practical skills to respond differently, which can be especially useful when stress, anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt start to affect daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful steps forward. This approach can be supportive during grief, major life transitions, or ongoing medical-related changes. Mindfulness Therapy also emphasizes present-moment awareness and grounding skills that can help clients relate to intense emotions with more steadiness.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tonya works collaboratively with clients to understand what they are hoping to change, what has or has not worked before, and what feels most comfortable, then adjusts the focus and tools to match their goals and preferences.

Online therapy offers multiple ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit support into a busy week, continue care during travel or health challenges, and choose a format that feels most natural for communication.
