How therapy approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters most and take actions that reflect their values. It can help when stress, anxiety, or avoidance keep someone from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches specific skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression and improve routines and sleep. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is an approach used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories by working through distressing material in a structured way; it is often chosen for trauma and abuse work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they’ll try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as fitting brief check-ins around work, avoiding travel time, or choosing a session length that matches a weekly schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work over distance, using discussion, exercises, and homework between sessions to keep progress moving.
