How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
This therapist commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety and panic. DBT focuses on skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can help when panic or impulsivity is present.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shanique works collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques as progress is made, and clients are invited to give feedback about what helps most.
