Therapeutic approaches for online care and skill building
Lee Anne commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape reactions today and helps people shift patterns that cause anger or distance. CBT focuses on spotting and changing thoughts and actions that keep problems going, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and angry outbursts.She also draws on EMDR when trauma memories are part of the picture. EMDR aims to lessen the intensity of distressing memories through structured processing, which can help lower reactivity and improve daily functioning. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process; the therapist will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust based on what helps achieve your goals.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets you practice skills face to face, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy days while maintaining the same therapeutic aims as in-person work.
