How Rafiah uses CBT, mindfulness and brief methods in online sessions
Rafiah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding. CBT focuses on concrete skills and short experiments that can reduce worry and improve coping for anxiety, depression and stress.She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. These techniques help with managing intense feelings, improving sleep, and noticing patterns without harsh self-judgment. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help finding motivation to change habits; it uses curious questions to clarify values and next steps.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Rafiah will work with the client to match methods to the person’s goals and preferences, then adjust as needed based on what helps most.
