Natascha focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. She talks through current problems and helps build skills for managing strong emotions and distressing memories.

How CBT, DBT and trauma-focused work online

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions usually include setting clear goals, practicing new ways of thinking, and homework between meetings to build skills that reduce anxiety and low mood.

DBT focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving how someone handles intense feelings. In remote sessions this often means learning and rehearsing concrete coping skills, tracking progress, and using short check-ins to reinforce new habits.

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process harmful or frightening memories at a controlled pace. Online sessions can combine grounding techniques, careful memory work, and skills to reduce reactions that interfere with daily life.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. Clients take part in deciding what feels most useful and what to try first.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits often help people keep steady momentum with their therapy.
