How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Jason uses evidence-based techniques such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing and cognitive behavioral therapy. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to improve mood and coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaborative process can include trying a technique and adjusting it based on how it feels and what helps.
