Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Dr. Bland uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often includes practical exercises and homework that fit well into remote sessions and can support work on anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating routines.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach present-moment awareness and simple breathing or grounding practices. These techniques can be guided in a video call or reinforced through short text check-ins between sessions to build emotional regulation skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful. Clients and the therapist work together to decide whether to emphasize CBT skills, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused steps as therapy progresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, quick coaching prompts, or flexible scheduling around work and family life. These options help people fit therapy into busy days without long commutes.
