Approaches that translate to online work
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and often helps with anxiety, stress, low mood, and parenting-related worries by teaching concrete skills and simple behavioral experiments.Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and increase calm. People use short mindfulness practices to handle strong emotions, decrease rumination, and stay present during stressful parenting moments.
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people find their own reasons to change. It can be useful for building motivation around new habits, career moves, or improving self-care and communication.
Choosing the right method is a team effort. Angela will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then use one or more approaches that fit. That shared decision helps shape session plans and practical homework between meetings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Phone calls can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or when someone prefers typed conversation. These options offer flexibility to schedule therapy around parenting, work, and daily life while still using evidence-based techniques.
