How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
Gayle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT involves practical exercises and small experiments that target symptoms like panic attacks, social anxiety, or obsessive thoughts. It often includes homework so progress continues between sessions.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, clear goals and identify steps that lead toward them. This approach emphasizes what is already working and builds on those strengths to create quick, manageable changes in daily routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gayle will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they set priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan if something is not helping.
