She pairs that with cognitive tools to help shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. For addictions and chemical dependency concerns she supports practical strategies alongside emotional processing. She attends to family and blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, abandonment wounds, codependency, commitment and control concerns.

Sessions typically look at relationship patterns, communication habits, and ways to manage emotions more effectively. Rivkah offers several ways to meet including video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. She accepts clients from outside the United States and works in English.

Online support

How attachment and trauma work in online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on the patterns people form in close relationships. It helps identify how early experiences shape trust, closeness, and reactions to conflict. This approach is useful for people struggling with intimacy, abandonment wounds, blended family issues, and long-standing relationship patterns.

Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on reducing the ongoing effects of abusive or overwhelming events. It combines emotional processing with practical coping skills to help reduce flashbacks, anxiety, and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy adds a straightforward way to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and needs, and then try methods that fit. Over time the plan may shift based on what helps most and what feels manageable for the person.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face to face from different places. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and more flexible scheduling. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and life transitions.
