Online approaches that focus on thoughts and habits
Dr. D'Elia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and reduce reactivity. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple skills to test and change thinking patterns. Mindfulness Therapy uses brief attention and breathing practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce automatic reactions.He treats the choice of approach as a team decision. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust approaches based on what works and what the person prefers. That collaborative process helps find methods that fit day-to-day life and the issues someone brings to therapy.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow follow-up check-ins that reinforce changes between meetings. It can also let someone use less bandwidth options for brief progress checks or choose longer sessions for skill practice, depending on what the therapist and client agree will be most helpful.
