How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and finding direction when feelings feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to change mood and reactions. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and addictive habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current bonds and helps people build safer connections and clearer communication. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through your goals, try techniques in sessions, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Together you decide which approach or combination of approaches fits your needs and preferences. Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let you maintain eye contact and work on interpersonal skills. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit brief updates or coping tools into a busy day. These options give flexibility so therapy can work around work, caregiving, and other commitments.
