How Trisha’s approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It encourages choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression and life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses straightforward exercises and experiments to shift unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for sleep, worry and mood problems.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits their goals and preferences. That discussion happens collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm which formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can happen around work or caring commitments. Registered and accredited professionals adapt exercises, mindfulness practices and homework for remote sessions so progress continues between appointments.
