Practical, evidence-informed support through online therapy
In online sessions, Gesina Charles draws from approaches that help clients better understand what they are experiencing and build skills they can use day to day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and actions, and practicing new ways to respond when anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt show up.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical tools for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships, which can be especially helpful when anger, overwhelm, or rapid mood shifts feel hard to control. Mindfulness Therapy supports learning to pause, ground, and relate to thoughts and feelings with more clarity, which can strengthen coping during stressful periods and life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gesina works collaboratively with clients to identify priorities, set goals, and choose strategies that fit their needs, preferences, and pace, adjusting the plan as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to get support from home, keep momentum between sessions, and choose a format that feels most comfortable and accessible.
