CBT and Mindfulness Approaches for Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical skills to change them. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, panic symptoms, and stress-related problems by teaching concrete strategies for thinking and behaving differently. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes paying gentle, nonjudgmental attention to the present moment through simple practices. It can help people reduce reactivity to difficult emotions, improve focus, and build emotional resilience in the face of everyday challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Jordan Uhden collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time so the plan fits the individual. That collaborative process helps determine whether CBT techniques, mindfulness practices, or a combination will be most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging that make it easier to attend sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments. These formats can increase access to licensed professionals and allow therapy to continue when in-person meetings are not practical, while still supporting consistent progress toward personal goals.
