Integrating therapeutic approaches for online care
Dr. Waller often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical skill-building and structured techniques to reduce symptoms like anxiety and stress. She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to cultivate present-moment awareness, breathing practices, and acceptance skills that support emotion regulation and resilience.Navigating the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adjusting the plan over time so treatment aligns with what feels most helpful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, support continuity when travel or relocation occurs, and allow clients to choose the interaction style that best supports their progress.
