How evidence-based methods adapt to online care
Dannette integrates well-established therapy methods into practical work that focuses on day-to-day functioning. Cognitive Processing Therapy helps people make sense of traumatic experiences by identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts about what happened. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy teaches skills to accept difficult feelings while focusing on actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral approaches address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and insomnia by changing thinking and behavior patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue work on issues like trauma, relationships, or money stress from different locations while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
