How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small actions toward meaningful goals; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviors to change mood and daily routines; it is often used for depression, sleep and eating concerns, and managing impulses. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on how people experience and express emotions in relationships, and it can help with intimacy issues and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the client's needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques may be mixed to match what helps most in a person’s life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets visual cues guide conversations, phone sessions can work with lower bandwidth, and text-based formats let people check in between appointments or use shorter updates. These options make therapy more flexible for busy days, work breaks, or when a quieter moment is available.
