Approaches that guide online sessions

Dr. Thweatt uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, a practical approach often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger management. Attachment-based therapy is also part of her work and focuses on understanding relational patterns and emotional bonds to improve communication, intimacy, and family dynamics. Client-centered therapy informs her sessions by emphasizing empathy, respect, and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring their goals and values.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Thweatt works with each person to determine which methods best fit their concerns, preferences, and goals, and she adapts the plan as progress unfolds to ensure the therapy remains relevant and useful.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access care from various locations and support ongoing work between meetings with brief check-ins or messaging when helpful.
