Evidence-based techniques for online care

Tenaya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are practical and goal-oriented. One common approach focuses on skills training for managing stress and anxiety through breath work, grounding, and behavior changes that reduce overwhelm. These techniques help when anxiety makes daily tasks hard to manage.

Another thread of work addresses trauma and grief by helping people name difficult feelings, create manageable routines, and practice coping strategies that reduce painful reminders over time. This kind of approach supports processing loss and building steady habits that improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right combination of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review what is helping and adjust methods as needed, so the plan fits the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. The client’s feedback guides which approaches are kept, adapted, or replaced.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is low, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports on-the-go reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and keep momentum during the work.
