How Alisha Uses CBT and Narrative Work Online
Alisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts that fuel anxiety or low mood and then try small behavior changes to test new outcomes. CBT sessions focus on practical skills such as thought tracking, activity scheduling, and short experiments to reduce avoidance.Narrative Therapy in her work helps people tell their stories differently after loss or big life changes. This approach looks at the themes that shape someone's sense of self and opens space to imagine alternative, more empowering narratives.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether CBT, narrative techniques, or a mix of strategies fits best for the issue at hand.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking so you know the format offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time, and support steady progress from familiar surroundings. For example, some people prefer shorter check-ins during a workday break or sessions that don’t require being on camera; discuss what will work best when scheduling.
