Her goal is for clients to feel seen and understood in each session.

Online support

How evidence-based approaches fit online care

Tonya often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy during online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and shifting behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication for people who struggle with intense feelings.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and find practical steps forward. That approach helps when someone wants quick, measurable changes and clearer next actions. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process and Tonya will work with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for regular therapy when seeing facial cues matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief support, check-ins, and working through small tasks between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, school, or family responsibilities.
