Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Allison Trevino integrates several therapeutic approaches that adapt well to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on building skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - useful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and compulsive behaviors. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing impact, often used when traumatic events contribute to current difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Allison works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, then tailors treatment by combining techniques that best fit the individual's needs. Clients are involved in choosing the pace and methods used throughout care.

Online therapy with Allison is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations while still receiving structured, evidence-informed treatment.
