Step 3
How evidence-based methods translate to online work
Nicole commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. CBT teaches practical coping skills and homework exercises that clients can practice between sessions.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help manage intense emotions and improve distress tolerance. These skills are short, teachable strategies for calming down, improving focus, and handling relationship stressors.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nicole will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit their needs. She adjusts strategies over time based on what is most helpful for the client.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut commute time, and allow short check-ins when a full in-person visit is difficult. It can also let people use therapy tools in real-life settings between meetings, which helps turn new skills into everyday habits.
