How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy
Melanie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills. One approach helps people learn breathing, grounding and behavioural strategies to reduce panic and sudden anxiety. These techniques teach step-by-step ways to interrupt panic responses and manage symptoms in the moment.Another approach focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavioural patterns. This kind of work looks at thoughts and actions that maintain anxiety, and then builds alternative responses through repeated practice. It can help with social anxiety, OCD-type worries and low self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Melanie will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as progress is made.
