How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and working at the client's pace, helping people feel heard and understood before moving to skill building. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches coping skills for intense emotions and helps people tolerate distress while improving relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Angelica will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try first. The plan can be adjusted as progress is tracked, so the client stays involved in shaping sessions.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as during a lunch break or between appointments, and it can reduce travel time. Some formats let people check in with shorter visits while others allow a fuller hour for skill practice and reflection. Ask about the current session options when you schedule so sessions match your needs and routine.
