Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Jan Capaccioli uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and insight to help people manage emotions, change unhelpful patterns, and improve relationships. One approach emphasizes skills-based, goal-focused interventions that teach coping strategies for mood symptoms, addictive behaviors, and anger management - these strategies help clients develop tools for day-to-day stability and improved functioning. Another approach centers on trauma-informed and relational work that acknowledges the impact of past harm on current relationships and self-worth, supporting recovery from trauma, abuse, grief, and intimacy-related issues.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Jan Capaccioli works together with each client to identify priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most effective and aligned with personal goals and preferences.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy lives and to access support from home. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, allow for consistent contact between sessions, and enable people to engage in treatment in a way that suits their comfort level and daily routine.
