Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Lindsay Brathwaite, LMFT, integrates evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, helping clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice new coping strategies for concerns like stress, anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem challenges.

She also draws from Attachment-Based Therapy, which explores how early relationships and life experiences can shape current needs, boundaries, and relationship dynamics. This approach can be especially useful when clients are working through life transitions, identity development, or recurring patterns in close relationships.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills can support emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and more effective communication, offering structured tools for navigating intense emotions and day-to-day pressures.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lindsay works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and adjust the pace and focus so therapy feels relevant and supportive over time.

Online therapy with Lindsay can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, continue care during transitions, and choose a format that feels most comfortable.
