Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Clarissa uses evidence-based, strengths-focused techniques that help clients identify their existing resources and build practical skills for managing stress and anxiety. This approach emphasizes personal strengths and collaborative goal setting to support steady, manageable progress.

She also employs skill-building strategies designed to teach specific tools for coping with emotional distress, improving day-to-day functioning, and navigating life transitions. These techniques can be especially helpful for people facing stress, relationship challenges, or changes that feel overwhelming.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Clarissa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they assess what is most helpful and adjust the plan over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how care is delivered, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, access support from home, and maintain continuity of care during life changes.
