Online support
How EFT, CBT and DBT translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and attachment patterns. It helps people identify their core feelings and how those feelings affect relationships and behavior. EFT can be useful when the goal is to understand emotional responses and build stronger emotional connections with others.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often uses homework, thought records, and behavior experiments to reduce anxiety and depression. CBT is a good fit for people who want concrete tools to manage symptoms.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. It can help people manage intense emotions, reduce impulsive actions, and improve coping during crises.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. Over time the plan can shift as needs change, combining emotional exploration with skills training when helpful.
Online therapy allows the same clinical approaches to be delivered across formats. Video calls are like in-person sessions and work well for deeper conversations and emotional work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short check-ins, skill reminders, or support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing family, work, and other commitments.
