How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors with practical exercises and skill building to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on emotions and attachment patterns, helping people understand core feelings and how those shape relationships and reactions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She listens to what matters most and adapts tools from these approaches to match the client's preferences and situation.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time. It can also let people choose sessions that match their energy level, such as sessions without video or more focused skill-practice meetings. A therapist will help plan how sessions fit into everyday life and routines.
