Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Ginger draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and reconnect with what matters. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT emphasizes values-guided action and learning to notice difficult thoughts without letting them control choices, which can support coping with life changes and loneliness.

She also uses emotion-focused ideas to deepen understanding of attachment and relational patterns. This approach helps people name painful feelings and learn new ways to respond in relationships and with themselves. Together these methods are used flexibly so the therapist and client can decide what fits best for the person's goals and situation.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversational work and skill coaching, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules, travel constraints, or daily demands and help people keep momentum while working toward change.
