Approaches that translate to online work
Torey draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in ways that fit online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments; it helps with anxiety, depression, and problem-solving. Acceptance and commitment therapy teaches practical ways to live with difficult feelings while moving toward what matters most; it often helps with stress, chronic worry, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Torey will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that suit their needs. That collaboration helps decide which techniques to use and how to pace the work.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how appointments are held. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where problems occur, and follow up between sessions with concrete tasks and observations to discuss at the next meeting.
