Remote therapy centered on skills and values
Vanessa integrates acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy into online work in order to meet people where they are. Acceptance and commitment therapy supports exploration of values and committed action, helping clients identify what matters most and make choices that align with those priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on noticing thought and behavior patterns and building practical skills to address them. Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
These methods are delivered within a client-centered frame that prioritizes collaboration and individual pacing. For relationship concerns, emotionally focused ideas and the Gottman Method may be used to explore attachment needs and communication patterns. People seeking help with anxiety, depression, grief, addictive behaviors, workplace issues, or life transitions can expect a blend of skill teaching, reflective inquiry, and practical planning.
Remote sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for those balancing work and family responsibilities. Vanessa and the client work together to choose the combination of formats and techniques that best fits the client’s goals.
