About Promise
Her approach combines several evidence-informed methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and take committed action. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach skills for managing intense emotions and changing unhelpful thinking. Client-Centered and Existential methods are woven in to keep the work grounded in the person’s own goals and values.
In sessions she focuses on identifying negative core beliefs and the coping strategies people use to feel safer or more connected. Promise helps clients name those patterns and practice alternatives. She emphasizes direct work that challenges unhelpful behaviors while building practical coping skills.
She also addresses areas such as attachment concerns, communication problems, codependency, family of origin issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, and life-purpose questions. People who come to her often want clear tools and straightforward reflection to move forward.

How Promise’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take actions that match those values. Online sessions using ACT often focus on small, doable steps and exercises to practice between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and change behavior patterns, which can be practiced in real life and reviewed in session. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion-regulation and interpersonal tools for managing intense feelings and improving communication.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Promise collaborates with each client to figure out which combination of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan based on what the client reports is working or not working.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, scheduling during a lunch break, choosing shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoiding travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often use online sessions to practice skills, review homework, and make steady progress without requiring large blocks of time.
