Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well Online
Mary Ann Godefroy integrates evidence-informed approaches that can be effectively practiced through online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps clients notice unhelpful patterns, test new perspectives, and build practical coping strategies for concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions.She also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication. DBT can be especially useful when emotions feel intense, relationships feel reactive, or it is difficult to stay grounded during conflict or change. Mindfulness-based strategies may be included as well, helping clients strengthen present-moment awareness and respond with greater intention rather than getting pulled into worry or overwhelm.
