Evidence-Based Techniques for Online Support
Perri Cohen draws from evidence-based approaches that adapt well to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping strategies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and increasing psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult emotions while committing to meaningful actions - this can be useful for life transitions, chronic health challenges, and ongoing stress. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines mindfulness practices with cognitive strategies to help reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation, which many find helpful for recurrent mood concerns and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Perri works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses to best support each person’s growth.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and geographic limitations. These options allow clients to maintain continuity of care, try different session formats, and access licensed professionals from home while receiving many of the same evidence-based tools used in in-person work.
