Evidence-based techniques and online care

Pridgett relies on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill building - teaching coping strategies, stress-management tools, and communication skills that clients can use in daily life. These approaches are well suited for concerns such as anxiety, stress, and relationship challenges, where learning and practicing new skills can reduce symptoms and improve functioning.

She also draws on trauma-informed methods that prioritize safety, pacing, and resilience when addressing experiences of trauma and abuse. These techniques help clients process difficult experiences while maintaining a focus on stabilization and empowerment. In addition, Pridgett incorporates coaching-style interventions that emphasize goal setting and actionable steps for change, which can be helpful for addiction recovery and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Pridgett works with each person to identify their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time so that therapy remains useful and relevant. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine methods to tailor care to the individual.

Online therapy offers practical benefits - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to access support from home or elsewhere. This flexibility can increase consistency and make it simpler to pursue treatment when it is needed most.
