How her approaches are used in online sessions

Rebecca commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT involves identifying thought patterns that contribute to anger and testing small behavior changes to reduce reactive responses. DBT provides concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills to manage intense feelings without escalating.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for people processing traumatic memories that contribute to anger. EMDR uses focused attention alongside guided processing to reduce the intensity of troubling memories and the reactions they trigger.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and then adapt methods over time. She emphasizes practical skills and clear objectives so progress can be measured and adjusted together.
