How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Dr. Rasheed commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based techniques as part of her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life transitions. Mindfulness therapy teaches awareness and grounding practices that can reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

She also integrates client-centered principles, which emphasize listening, validation and using each person's strengths to guide change. Determining the right mix of methods is a collaborative process; the therapist works with clients to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences and the specific challenges they bring to sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to continue consistent care from home or other convenient locations, and to select the communication style that best supports therapeutic progress.
