How evidence-based approaches can fit into online care
LaShanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on trauma, relationships, and emotional regulation. One common approach she uses focuses on skills-building for managing anxiety and stress, teaching practical tools people can use between sessions to reduce overwhelming feelings. Another approach centers on processing trauma and the effects of abuse in paced, manageable steps that help restore a sense of safety and control.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify current needs, set goals, and try approaches that fit the person’s style and life. Adjustments are made as progress is reviewed so therapy stays relevant and useful.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to maintain continuity during life transitions.
