Telehealth options and therapeutic approaches



Mercides Palmer provides remote sessions by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats are used to address relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, ADHD-related concerns, and other focus areas listed on her profile. The available communication methods allow for both scheduled conversations and shorter text exchanges as appropriate to the presenting needs.

She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns shape current interactions and emotional responses. Client-Centered Therapy is used to create a collaborative framework in which the person’s perspective guides the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are offered to support practical skill building around thoughts, behaviors, and emotion regulation. Together these approaches can be tailored so that sessions emphasize either reflective exploration or structured skills practice, depending on what the person hopes to accomplish.

Prospective participants can choose the remote format that fits their schedule and communication preferences. Sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging are all part of the practice’s telehealth options.
