Approaches that guide online work
Dr. Daniel frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence emotions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas in sessions to help people understand patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect current behavior. These approaches are described simply in session so clients can try small changes between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Daniel will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is adjusted over time based on what helps most.
