How approach and online work come together
Clara commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change patterns of thinking that feed anxiety or depression. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and gives practical tools to try between sessions.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT offers concrete exercises for managing intense feelings and improving communication. Attachment-based ideas help explore how early relationship patterns affect current behavior and closeness with others.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Clara will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they decide which techniques to prioritize and adjust the plan as needed.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use video or phone in ways that suit their schedule. Ask about the session formats offered when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine and goals.
