Trauma-informed and CBT-focused care online

Dr. Cynthia Yamokoski integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy into her online practice to address symptoms and everyday challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and other concerns; it is focused, practical, and often includes specific strategies and exercises to practice between sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic experiences and reducing trauma-related symptoms through structured approaches that target memories, avoidance, and emotional responses.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Dr. Yamokoski collaborates with each person to review goals, preferences, and current needs, and she tailors the treatment plan so the chosen methods fit the client’s situation. This collaborative process helps determine whether CBT, trauma-focused techniques, or a combination will be most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to access support from home or other convenient locations. These options allow ongoing, consistent contact with licensed professionals and can support progress through regular sessions and between-session tools.
