Online support

How attachment and skills work online

Dr. Baylor integrates attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral work into online sessions to address both emotional patterns and daily behaviors. Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and helps people notice and change repeating patterns in relationships and emotion regulation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. She will talk with the client about goals, current struggles, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus more on attachment themes, practical skills, or a mix, and they adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow a close, face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a brief check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter touchpoints, ongoing skill coaching, or people who prefer writing during reflection. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and travel.
