04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. Online sessions use this approach to identify connection needs and to practice new ways of relating to others and to oneself. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In virtual sessions this often means setting concrete goals, trying short experiments between sessions, and tracking progress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used for processing traumatic memories; when appropriate, elements of EMDR can be adapted for remote work to help reduce the emotional intensity of past events.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Lee Anne works collaboratively to determine which methods fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She explains options, discusses what to expect, and adjusts the plan as progress and feedback guide the work.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging is useful for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between appointments. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or health limitations while keeping therapy consistent and goal oriented.
