Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Lisa Hilton, LMSW, draws from approaches that can be especially practical in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and experimenting with new ways of responding, which can be useful for concerns like anxiety, stress, depression, and day-to-day coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness, offering structure for people working through intense emotions, conflict, or life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationships shape needs, boundaries, and connection, which can be helpful when relationship dynamics, abandonment concerns, or intimacy-related issues feel stuck.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand what is most challenging right now, and choose strategies that fit their preferences and pace, adjusting as needs change over time.
