Evidence-Based Therapy, Made Flexible Online
Riley Rodemaker integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients better understand what they are experiencing and build practical tools for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and then practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for concerns like anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult feelings while clarifying personal values, helping clients take meaningful steps forward even when stress, grief, or uncertainty show up. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support people who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or stuck in unhelpful cycles.
