Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for grief, anxiety, and life changes that leave someone feeling uncertain. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, listening stance where the person leads the pace and focus of each session. This helps people build trust and feel heard while they work through hard experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and introduces practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, and behavior changes people want to make.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Sessions can shift over time as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

Confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and check in during a short break. It can also allow for different ways of working such as talking through problems, practicing skills, and reviewing homework between meetings.
