How her approaches work online and what to expect
Dr. Lennox uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping skills. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts that influence feelings and actions, then testing new ways of thinking. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when emotions run high.She also uses solution-focused techniques to set specific, short-term goals and hypnotherapy when clients are open to that option. Each approach is described in simple terms and applied to the problem at hand rather than as a fixed prescription.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches based on goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. This is an ongoing conversation and can change as progress is made.
