Evidence-informed approaches for remote therapy

Dr. Brodie uses a family-focused approach that situates individual concerns within relationships and life goals, helping clients see how patterns between family members and partners influence emotional health and behavior. This perspective can be especially helpful for couples, families, and those navigating intimacy-related or relationship difficulties.

She also emphasizes awareness-to-action strategies that identify risk factors and underlying problems, then translate insight into concrete behavioral changes. These techniques are applied to anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and addictions to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

For clients who are first responders or who have experienced trauma, Dr. Brodie tailors interventions to address the unique stressors of those roles, drawing on evidence-based principles to support recovery and resilience.

Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. Dr. Brodie works with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit treatment into busy schedules and to connect across distances.
