Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early patterns of connection influence current relationships and emotional responses. It can help address attachment issues, family-of-origin dynamics, relationship challenges, and feelings of isolation by focusing on how connection and safety are experienced in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking and change behavior. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, OCD symptoms, panic, and phobias. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for impulsivity, anger, and intense emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marcy King collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and other commitments. Licensed professionals can adapt evidence-informed techniques to these formats so therapists and clients can work consistently, practice skills between sessions, and maintain momentum through life transitions and busy periods.
