How sessions work
How Anita uses therapeutic approaches in remote sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep someone stuck in people-pleasing or avoidance. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling interpersonal conflict. These skills can help reduce impulsivity and reactivity in tense relationships. EFT, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, focuses on how emotions shape relationship patterns and helps people understand and change those interaction cycles.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what helps. That means approaches can be blended across sessions rather than fixed from the start.
