Approaches you can use in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them; this approach often suits anxiety, mood issues, and sleep or eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others and to themselves.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together you decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as you go so sessions stay relevant to your situation.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join sessions from different places when life or work requires flexibility. Licensed professionals, including therapists using ACT, CBT, and attachment-based methods, often adapt exercises and homework so they work well in virtual or in-person settings.
