Remote therapy options and approach
Masi provides online support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. In remote sessions she draws on several evidence-informed approaches to match the needs a person brings. Communication options are presented so people can choose a format that fits their routine and comfort with technology.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns of behavior and then tests new ways of thinking and acting. That practical focus can make it easier to set goals and track progress between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, with an emphasis on balancing acceptance and change.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices guide exploration of values and present-moment awareness, while Motivational Interviewing supports readiness for change. Masi works collaboratively to tailor pacing, select tools, and combine these methods according to each person’s goals and day-to-day life.
