Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Mark Daddona commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques, which focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. He also draws on a person-centered approach, offering a supportive, empathetic environment that helps clients explore their values, build self-understanding, and strengthen relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Daddona works with clients to clarify their goals, preferences, and needs, and he tailors methods so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model on everyone.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to connect with licensed professionals from home or on the go. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, more options for ongoing support between sessions, and greater accessibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
