Online support
How EMDR and Skills-Based Work Translate to Online Therapy
Lee Anne integrates EMDR with cognitive and relational approaches when appropriate. EMDR focuses on reducing the intensity of painful memories through guided processing, which can be useful for trauma-related symptoms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy teaches concrete strategies to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, helping with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lee Anne will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is tracked and needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and interactive exercises, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted, live chat can offer quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short updates or coaching between sessions. These options give flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels while keeping therapy focused on practical change.
