How evidence-based techniques can fit into online therapy

Jeri uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One common technique helps people learn how their thoughts and behaviors interact and then practice small changes to reduce anxiety or depressive moods. Another approach targets trauma-related responses by teaching skills to manage intense reactions and build tolerance for difficult memories or reminders.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jeri works with each person to understand their goals, life demands, and what has or has not helped before. Together they try methods that match the person's needs and adjust plans as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving by removing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It can also let someone use quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when energy or bandwidth are limited. Confirm the specific options offered and schedule details during the matching and booking steps so sessions match your daily routine.
