How Nicole uses therapy approaches online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It helps when anger or distance shows up in close relationships by tracing where those reactions began. Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's experience and keeps the work collaborative. It helps people name what matters and set personal goals for handling anger and emotional demands.DBT - Dialectical Behavior Therapy - teaches concrete skills for tolerating distress, managing strong emotions, and improving communication. These skills are often used when anger is intense or when people want tools to prevent escalations. The therapist will discuss which approaches fit best and tailor sessions around the client's goals, preferences, and needs so the plan feels workable and realistic.
