Approaches used in remote sessions and how they help
Dr. Allmond commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy skills in his work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and patterns that keep problems going, which can help with depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and compulsive behaviors. DBT offers concrete skills for regulating emotions, handling high-stress moments, and tolerating distress without making things worse.He also draws on mindfulness practices and emotionally focused ideas when relationship patterns are part of the concern. These methods teach present-moment awareness, reduce reactivity, and help clarify emotional needs in interactions. The choice of approach is not fixed at the start; he will work collaboratively with each person to decide which methods match their needs and goals.
