Background and approach

Destiny draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to address thoughts, emotions, and behavior.

She adapts methods to fit what the person finds useful.

Her background includes four years of clinical practice and a Master of Science and LPC credentials in Louisiana. Destiny aims to make therapy understandable and action oriented, rather than full of jargon. She keeps session plans focused on what the person wants to accomplish.

People who come to her can expect clear goals, practical homework, and check-ins on progress. Destiny emphasizes building coping skills, improving communication, and reducing crisis moments. Her work is intended to help people regain control and move toward a life they value.

How Destiny’s approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and perspective. Online sessions using this approach start with what matters most to the person and shape the work around their values and preferences. It supports people who want a respectful, nonjudgmental space to sort out decisions and goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practices concrete alternatives. In virtual sessions this often looks like tracking patterns, trying short exercises between meetings, and reviewing what worked. CBT is useful for anxiety, anger, mood concerns, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on progress and preference, keeping the work practical and focused.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and flexibility for people with busy schedules. These options help make therapy easier to fit into day-to-day life.
