Evidence-Based Tools, Delivered Through Online Therapy

Roberto (BO) Hess, LCSW, draws from structured, skills-focused methods that translate well to online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another, then practice new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, low mood, and everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication, which can be especially helpful when feelings intensify quickly or relationships feel strained.

He also integrates Mindfulness Therapy, which builds the ability to slow down, observe what is happening in the moment, and respond with more intention. This approach can support clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or pulled into cycles of worry, shame, or reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Roberto (BO) Hess works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, identify what is getting in the way, and choose strategies that fit their needs and preferences, adjusting over time as things change.

Online therapy makes that support more accessible and flexible, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Clients can choose the format that best matches their schedule, comfort level, and day-to-day demands.
