Practical Therapy Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Akia Izzard draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be adapted to the concerns bringing someone to therapy, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and shifts in confidence or motivation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another. It can help clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns, test new perspectives, and practice coping strategies that support day-to-day functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful when feelings feel intense or relationships feel hard to navigate. Solution-Focused Therapy keeps sessions grounded in strengths and goals, helping clients identify what is working, clarify next steps, and build momentum through practical changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Akia works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and what they want to get out of therapy, then adjusts the work to fit what is most helpful.
Online therapy can make it easier to get support in a way that fits real life. Clients may meet with Akia through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility and more options for staying engaged between sessions.
