How Melinda’s approaches work for online sessions

Melinda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thinking patterns that fuel anger and low mood. CBT sessions tend to involve practical exercises, tracking thoughts, and trying new behaviors between meetings.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. DBT-style skills are useful for people who want concrete tools to manage intense feelings and reduce reactive behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Melinda will discuss goals and preferences and try different methods together to see what helps most. That collaborative process shapes which techniques are emphasized over time.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a workday, allow shorter check-ins, or remove travel time. Talk with the therapist about which arrangement best matches your schedule and needs before scheduling.
