Online support

How evidence-based approaches move to online care

Laurie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work with stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns. One common approach focuses on building emotion regulation skills - teaching ways to notice strong feelings, calm the body, and respond rather than react. This helps with panic, anger, and overwhelming sadness.

Another emphasis is on behavioral strategies that change patterns that keep problems going. Those techniques break big goals into small steps, set realistic routines, and practice new behaviors in everyday life. This approach is useful for low mood, avoidance, and social anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laurie collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan so it fits how someone lives and what they can manage.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients check in between sessions or use shorter, focused exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different schedules.
