How attachment and CBT approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and emotional responses. Online sessions can help identify recurring patterns in relationships and practice new ways of connecting and responding in current relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. In online work, CBT often involves noticing unhelpful thinking, trying alternative responses, and using short practical exercises between sessions to test changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Veronica will collaborate with each person to decide which strategies fit their goals and preferences. She will adapt methods over time based on what is helpful and what the client wants to focus on.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. It also supports using worksheets, emotion-tracking, and role-play in session so people can practice skills in real life and bring results back to discuss.
