How CBT and Trauma-Focused Care Work Online

Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that increase stress or sadness. CBT focuses on practical exercises and small behavioral changes that can reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.

She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events continue to cause distress. This approach helps people name the impact of trauma, develop coping strategies, and build a sense of safety and forward motion in relationships and daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jennifer listens to your goals and preferences, then recommends strategies that match your situation. The plan can change as you progress and as new needs arise.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit work into a busy day, avoid travel time, and maintain continuity when schedules change. Some formats also let people check in with shorter sessions or use audio-only when that suits them better.
