Approaches for Online Work and Practical Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts and behaviors. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with coping in daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and awareness practices that support emotional balance and present-moment coping. It can complement structured skill work and is useful for stress reduction and increasing self-compassion.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Whitney Brown works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Dr. Brown is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access from home or other convenient locations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue skill practice between sessions with a licensed professional.
