How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy
Marylene uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills training and symptom reduction. One common technique emphasizes teaching practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing strategies, activity scheduling, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. These skills help reduce day-to-day distress and improve functioning.Another approach centers on trauma-focused work and assessment. This involves careful review of traumatic experiences, development of safety and coping strategies, and formal assessment when indicated; her biography notes she provides PTSD testing. Trauma-focused work can help people process events and reduce trauma-related symptoms over time.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. Clients can expect shared decision-making about techniques and pacing.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It can also make shorter follow-ups or focused skills coaching simpler to schedule, depending on the available formats and the client’s needs.
