How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Bridget works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses involves behavioral strategies - setting small, concrete goals, practicing new behaviors, and measuring progress over time. This helps with urges, routine-building, and managing anxiety in everyday situations.Another approach centers on skills for managing mood and addictive patterns, such as learning coping responses for cravings, improving communication skills, and creating safer routines. These methods aim to reduce immediate distress and build more reliable day-to-day habits.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Bridget will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their concerns, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts the plan if something isn’t helping and focuses on what can be practiced between sessions.
