How her approaches translate to online work
Emily draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying what matters and taking small steps that align with those values while learning to respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. That approach can help with persistent anxiety and low motivation by turning values into practical actions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a method that helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice alternative ways of thinking and behaving. CBT offers concrete exercises useful for worry, panic, and many anxiety-related problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Emily works collaboratively to see which methods fit a client’s goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan based on how people respond. Clients and therapist decide together which skills and practices to try first.
