How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Angela uses evidence-based techniques to guide practical work. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and they help with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. DBT-informed strategies teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication skills to reduce impulsivity and overwhelm.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Angela will work with each person to pick strategies that match their goals and daily life. Together they adapt tools and pace so the work feels useful and doable rather than overwhelming.

In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports continuity of care after inpatient or intensive outpatient treatment by keeping momentum between visits.
