How evidence-based work translates to online sessions
Bonnie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing patterns and skills. One common approach is behavioral work that identifies triggers and tests small changes in daily routines to reduce anxiety and cravings. That type of work helps with addictions, stress, and mood symptoms by making concrete behavior changes.Another approach is interpersonal and relational work that looks at roles learned in the family of origin. This helps people see how expectations and reactions formed in childhood affect current relationships and choices. The focus is on practicing new ways to relate and set boundaries.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Bonnie collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will review progress and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
