How CBT Guides Online Work
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different actions to see if things improve. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns.Brittany also uses practical coaching techniques during sessions to teach skills and habits that can be practiced between meetings. These steps are short and concrete so clients can try them in daily life and report back what worked and what did not.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That means checking in often and adjusting tools or pacing if something is not helpful.
