Therapeutic approaches and accessible online support
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and learning practical strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress and many everyday difficulties where thinking patterns and coping routines contribute to distress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness and mindful awareness. It is useful for people struggling with intense emotions, impulsive behaviour or difficulties managing relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Zsuzsanna works collaboratively with clients and with registered professionals to consider individual needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts methods so the work fits the person rather than the person fitting a method.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible and accessible. These options allow clients to engage from home or elsewhere, fit sessions around work and family life, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for them while maintaining continuity of care with a registered therapist.
