How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and testing small changes to shift mood and behavior. It often helps with depression, anxiety, and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That process may include trying a few techniques and adjusting based on what helps most.

Confirm current session formats before booking to learn which online options are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible for international clients to connect, with scheduling adapted to time zones. Discuss practical preferences during the matching steps so sessions align with day-to-day life.
