How therapy approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without trying to push them away, then choose actions that line up with their values. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience and choices. In practice this means the therapist listens, reflects, and helps clarify goals so the client leads the pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and routines that keep problems going and testing small behavior changes. It is practical for managing anxiety, mood shifts, and habits linked to substance use. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is reviewed. Confirm the session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people practice mindfulness and behavioral experiments in their everyday context, with homework and coaching adapted for remote sessions.Sheet 3
