How evidence-based techniques work in online care
Susan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach she uses centers on teaching coping skills to reduce anxiety and manage panic symptoms; this involves practicing breathing, grounding, and brief behavioral strategies to interrupt intense reactions. Another key focus is building self-esteem and addressing shame through guided conversation and exercises that challenge negative self-beliefs and encourage self-compassion.Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will work with each client to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can shift as progress unfolds.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during work breaks or evenings. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the current options before booking to know what is available. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and check-ins to work well over video or phone formats when those are in use, helping clients practice skills between sessions and apply them to everyday situations.
