How Esther uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It can help with ongoing anxiety and conflicts about what to do next. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own perspective and uses listening and reflection to help people understand choices and feelings.Esther also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete tools for managing strong emotions and reducing panic symptoms. Each approach offers different tools, and Esther will work with the client to decide which methods feel most useful. That decision is collaborative and guided by the client’s goals and preferences.
The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow more flexible timing for work or caregiving obligations. They also let clients practice skills in the settings where challenges actually occur. Esther will discuss which approach and session arrangement match the client’s needs when arranging the first meeting.
