In sessions she combines methods that help people notice thought patterns, build skills, and reconnect with what matters most.

Dr. Cannady aims to create a calm and respectful space where clients can talk openly. She helps people process difficult feelings, increase awareness, and find practical steps forward. Many clients look for support with sleep, eating, attention challenges, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation.

Her practice supports adults navigating life changes like divorce, commitment concerns, or infidelity, as well as those dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, and aging-related questions. She welcomes people who want to make different choices and build a renewed sense of self.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Dr. Cannady often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with personal values so they can take meaningful steps forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns that contribute to distress and practicing skills to change behaviors and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying things out, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that video or phone sessions help maintain continuity during busy life transitions and allow therapy to be part of their everyday routine.
