How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that line up with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes listening and building a trusting relationship so the person feels heard and can explore what matters most to them.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Henrietta will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts plans as progress is made and encourages input about what is or isnt helpful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video gives face-to-face connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging allow short check-ins or ongoing reflection between meetings. These options let people fit therapy around work, caregiving, and daily life while using the therapeutic tools described above.
