How CBT and online sessions can help with feeling stuck

Tonine Garberino uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable steps, which can help with anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, and coping after a major change.

The right approach often becomes clearer through a few conversations. She will work with clients to choose techniques and adjust them based on what the person needs and prefers. That decision is collaborative and revisited as goals or circumstances shift.

Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also allow someone to use video or audio based on what is most comfortable. Therapists and licensed professionals commonly adapt exercises and homework to work well between sessions, so that progress connects to everyday life.
