How ACT and CBT guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small, consistent steps toward those values even when feelings are hard. It focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without letting them control behavior, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and relationship challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT uses short experiments and practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can reduce stress and social anxiety symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Curtis will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s life and needs.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote work helps maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities.
