Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and end-of-life or hospice related needs.

Online support
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Edith draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and preferences for how to work. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and messaging is useful for short updates or ongoing support between meetings. These options help fit therapy around work, caregiving, and other busy schedules.
