Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small meaningful steps even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to change mood and daily functioning; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating difficulties.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Shane will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they decide which strategies to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so the work fits the person's life and needs.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill teaching and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, and getting support between scheduled sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
