How her approaches guide online care
Fameika uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday struggles.She also draws on trauma-focused methods to address distress tied to past events. Those approaches aim to reduce the hold that traumatic memories have on current life and to build safety around triggers and reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with the client about current needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. That process is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.
