Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online

Danielle Behrens draws from evidence-based approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions, helping people notice unhelpful patterns and practice new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, depression, and everyday challenges.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward what matters most. It often emphasizes values, mindful awareness, and practical steps toward change, which can be especially helpful during life transitions, relationship strain, or periods of feeling stuck.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication. It can be a strong fit for clients who want structured tools for managing intense emotions, conflict, or overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Danielle works collaboratively, adapting sessions to the client’s goals, preferences, and current needs, and adjusting strategies over time as new insights and priorities emerge.

Online therapy also makes support more accessible. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, and can use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility between sessions and around busy schedules.
