How Larisa integrates approaches in remote work
Larisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often involve identifying specific patterns, trying new behaviors, and reviewing results in the next meeting. Mindfulness practices are used to reduce reactivity and increase attention to the present; these are short exercises that can be practiced between sessions to lower stress.Finding the right combination of techniques is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what works in daily life.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online options can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Many clients find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity during transitions, but Larisa will discuss which setup best supports practical work on boundaries, communication, and emotion regulation.
