Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and actions. It helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose steps that match what matters to them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors for issues like anxiety, sleep problems, and mood concerns. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and pick or combine approaches that suit the person. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as needs change. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and choose a quieter time of day for check-ins. It can also allow for shorter focused sessions or more flexible scheduling when life is hectic. Speak with the therapist during the matching and scheduling steps to learn which formats she currently offers and what will work best for your situation.
