Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Kafayat (Ayoka) Hannah draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to guide her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the person's own goals and values shape the work and helps with self-exploration and building self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stressful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier interpersonal interactions, which can be useful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Hannah works with each person to identify their needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors methods from these approaches to fit the situation. This partnership helps ensure the work feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy with Hannah is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care across locations. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these formats to deliver effective, accessible support that aligns with each person's life and commitments.
