How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Dr. Wuhib commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy when working remotely. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and testing new ways of responding to reduce symptoms like panic attacks or social anxiety. Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring relationship patterns and past experiences to understand how they affect current functioning.She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas as needed; narrative work helps people reinterpret difficult events, while solution-focused work targets small, practical steps for immediate concerns. Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and preferences and choose methods that match the presenting problems and the clients needs.
Her profile notes video and phone sessions with evening and weekend hours, but readers should confirm current session options before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose whether to be on camera. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, homework, and pacing for remote formats so work remains practical and focused on daily functioning.
