Evidence-based approaches and online care

Dr. Hicks uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on reducing anxiety and improving relationships. One common approach helps people learn clearer communication skills and practical ways to handle conflict, which can ease relationship stress and family tension. Another approach targets stress and anxiety by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building small behavioral changes to lower daily worry and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will work with each client to pick methods that fit their goals, pace, and comfort level. Sessions begin by identifying immediate concerns and testing approaches to see what helps most, adjusting over time based on the client’s feedback.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also supports continuity of care when attending in-person sessions is difficult. Licensed professionals, including therapists, can use these options to help clients keep steady progress toward their goals.
