Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Sherri Kincade integrates several evidence-informed methods to address stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and relationship challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so clients can act in ways that matter to them despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to support people managing intense emotions and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sherri takes a collaborative stance, exploring each person’s goals, preferences, and life context to determine which methods or combination of methods are the best fit and adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for varied schedules and geographical locations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from familiar settings, and fit therapy into busy lives while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual needs.
