Online support
Using EMDR and CBT Online to Address Trauma and Stress
Kim blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR-informed methods to help people reduce distress and change patterns that keep problems going. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to manage anxiety, panic, and mood symptoms. EMDR-style work focuses on processing painful memories so they feel less overwhelming and disruptive to daily life.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy techniques to teach simple attention and breathing practices that lower reactivity and support clearer thinking. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Kim will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then adapt the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions enable face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work regardless of location.
