How Andrea’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, values-driven steps despite discomfort, which is useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It can help with depression, panic, sleep problems, and many everyday stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they pick or combine methods and adjust as progress unfolds, keeping decisions collaborative and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversation and skill practice. Phone can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat or text can be useful for short check-ins, practicing skills between sessions, or when a written format feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and diverse needs.
