Online support

How her approaches work online

Dr. Anais commonly draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral methods in online work. Attachment-based approaches look at patterns in close relationships and how those early patterns shape current reactions. This can help with intimacy-related concerns, abandonment worries, and communication problems. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to change them, which can ease anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and eating concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to understand a person’s goals and preferences, then suggests methods that fit. Plans are reviewed and adjusted together as progress continues.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when you need less bandwidth or a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people send short updates, ask quick questions, or work in writing between calls. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain contact when in-person visits aren’t possible.
