How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Stana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work, focusing on practical skills people can use day to day. Cognitive-behavioral strategies are often used to help identify unhelpful thoughts and experiment with different behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood. Behavioral approaches may include pacing gradual exposure to feared situations to build tolerance and confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort. That means trying options, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to a fixed method up front.
