She invites people to take a first step and start a conversation about what they need.

CBT and practical strategies for online family support

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress and helps people change behaviors that get in the way of goals.

In online sessions with Torie, the work centers on practical strategies you can use at home. That may include short behavioral experiments, calming or distraction techniques for stress, and communication exercises for family interactions. The therapist helps tailor those techniques to what fits your daily routine.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Torie will listen to your goals and suggest methods that match your needs, then adjust the plan as you make progress. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to continue work between meetings. The range of formats also lets people choose how they feel most comfortable connecting with a licensed professional.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
