Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lissette Ciabattoni integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to address symptoms and improve daily functioning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and replacing them with more adaptive strategies - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings, helping people reduce reactivity and build emotional regulation skills.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative work between therapist and client. Lissette will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust techniques over time so the approach fits the individual’s circumstances and values.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for people who prefer remote care. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of treatment during life changes, allow sessions from familiar settings, and provide multiple ways to communicate so therapy can fit different lifestyles and comfort levels.
