Using different therapeutic approaches in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, worry, or shifting mood to move toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear steps and practice. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with daily stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying emotions and patterns in close relationships so people can communicate needs more clearly and feel more connected.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how past attempts at therapy have gone. Together they try methods that fit the person and adjust the plan as progress is made.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins between appointments. Different approaches lend themselves to different paces - some sessions focus on skills practice and homework, while others focus on processing emotions or relational patterns. The therapist will help select a rhythm and structure that works with the client’s schedule and needs.
