Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online

Tina Johnson, LCSW, draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting, especially when life feels overwhelming or stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It can help clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice more workable ways of responding, which may be useful for stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and coping with life changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication. This approach can be a strong fit when intense emotions, relationship strain, or anger and stress feel hard to manage.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most. It can be helpful for building resilience and aligning daily choices with personal values.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina collaborates with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and priorities, then tailors therapy to what is most helpful over time.

Online therapy also offers flexibility: clients can meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making support easier to fit into busy schedules and changing needs.
