Approaches and online therapy options that fit your life

Tonya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and skills people can use day to day. One approach centers on helping people notice thought patterns that contribute to worry and low mood, then practicing alternative ways of thinking and responding. This helps reduce the intensity of anxious or depressed feelings over time. Another approach focuses on building simple coping skills and routines - such as brief grounding exercises, pacing activities, and small behavioral changes - so stress feels more manageable and energy can recover.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Tonya works with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. She checks in regularly and tailors methods to match a client's needs, goals, and preferences rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when conversation and nonverbal cues help the work. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text allow shorter, more frequent touchpoints and can fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
