Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well to Online Care
Margaret Doman integrates practical, evidence-based methods that can be used effectively in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, helping clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, low mood, and relationship tension.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful when emotions feel intense or when communication and boundaries are hard to maintain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while building momentum toward values-based choices and meaningful life directions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Margaret collaborates with each client to understand what brings them to therapy, what they want to change, and what kind of support feels most helpful, then adjusts the pace and tools accordingly.
Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions for face-to-face or voice-based support, and can use live chat or text-based messaging for ongoing reflection, questions, and check-ins between sessions. This variety can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to stay engaged through life’s changes.
