Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well to Online Care
Alicia Powell draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can work well in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions, helping clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice more workable responses when stress, anxiety, depression, or life transitions feel overwhelming.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, which can be especially helpful for managing intense feelings, relationship strain, and moments when it is hard to stay grounded. Mindfulness therapy supports learning to pay attention to the present moment with less judgment, building steadier awareness that can reduce reactivity and support coping day to day.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alicia works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and choose strategies that feel realistic and supportive, adjusting along the way as needs change.
Online therapy also adds flexibility. Clients can meet with her through video calls or phone sessions, and can use live chat or text-based messaging when that format feels more accessible. These options can make it easier to stay consistent with therapy while balancing work, family responsibilities, and everyday life.
