How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small actions that fit what matters most. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors to find practical changes that reduce distress and improve daily routines. It is often used for anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns affect current connection and trust, and it can help with intimacy, communication, and relationship repair.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods seem most useful. That choice is based on the client's goals, preferences, and what feels workable in everyday life.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what fits your schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use video when face-to-face discussion helps, or rely on phone-based conversations when a quieter setup is easier. Ask about current session options when you start the matching process so you can pick what works best.
