Therapeutic approaches for online support

Victoria Bartholomew often draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships, which can be especially helpful when emotions feel overwhelming.

Victoria also integrates Trauma-Focused Therapy when past traumatic experiences are central to a person's difficulties, focusing on processing those experiences and building coping strategies to reduce their impact. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process - she works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support from wherever the client is located. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity of care during life transitions, and let clients practice skills in real time with guidance from a licensed therapist.
