How CBT and Solution-Focused Work for Online Sessions
Zoila (Mimi) Danta uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test the thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT sessions often include trying small behavior changes between meetings and reviewing what did or did not work.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and build on what is already working in a person’s life. This approach focuses on practical steps and measurable progress, which can be helpful when managing social anxiety or relationship problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mimi will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped you before, and then recommend an approach to try. That plan can be adjusted as you go, so sessions stay relevant to your needs.
