How Susie's Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. ACT can help with anxiety, stress, and making forward steps during life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and improving day-to-day coping skills.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current connection patterns and helps people build healthier bonds. This approach is often helpful for relationship and intimacy concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they may try one method or blend techniques to meet practical needs.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let clients fit sessions into work, school, or caregiving schedules. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in when time is tight, while live chat or text messaging works well for brief updates or when typing feels easier. Video calls support deeper conversations and visual cues without travel time, making therapy more flexible and easier to maintain.
