Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Dr. Vivia Hill-Silcott draws from a range of approaches to meet clients where they are, including client-centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Client-centered therapy emphasizes a supportive, respectful relationship that helps clients clarify what they are feeling, identify what matters most, and build momentum toward change at a pace that feels manageable.

CBT focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can be especially helpful for concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by practicing new ways to respond to unhelpful patterns. DBT adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support clients who feel overwhelmed, reactive, or stuck in intense relationship cycles.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. Dr. Hill-Silcott works collaboratively with clients to understand goals, preferences, and what has or has not been helpful in the past, then adjusts the approach accordingly as therapy progresses.

Online therapy makes it easier to access support in a way that fits real life. Sessions can happen through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, travel, and day-to-day demands.
