04Online support
Approaches that guide online work
Patricia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at helping people manage symptoms and build coping skills. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to ease anxiety and depression. This helps people notice patterns and try new ways of thinking that reduce distress.Another approach emphasizes gradual exposure to feared situations and learning practical coping tools to manage panic and trauma-related reactions. Clients practice small, manageable steps between sessions to build confidence and reduce avoidance. These methods suit worries like panic attacks, social anxiety, and trauma recovery.
Finding the right approach is treated as a team effort. The therapist listens to concerns, reviews past attempts, and suggests options that match goals and preferences. Together they adjust methods over time so work stays useful and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people read facial cues and have more interactive work. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or helpful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit quick reflections, ongoing practice, or days when writing feels easier than speaking.
