Evidence-based approaches available through online care

Ingrid integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete strategies for reducing anxiety, managing depression, and improving daily functioning. CBT focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills that can be used between sessions.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship skills. DBT combines acceptance and change strategies to help people manage intense emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ingrid works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors interventions or blends techniques so therapy fits the individual. Licensed professionals and therapists often adapt methods over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow people to receive consistent care from home or work, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of support even when life is changing.
