Evidence-Based Approaches, Personalized for Online Care
Esther Bold draws from several evidence-based approaches that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then practicing new skills to respond differently to stress, anxiety, depression, and everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, which can be helpful when feelings feel intense or relationships feel strained. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach often used to help people process difficult memories and reduce the emotional charge connected to past experiences.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Esther collaborates with clients to understand what they are dealing with, what they want to change, and what feels most comfortable, then adjusts the plan over time as goals become clearer.
Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, or choose live chat and text-based messaging when that fits better with work, family responsibilities, energy levels, or location. This range of options can make it easier to stay engaged and consistent with therapy over time.
