How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It is often used for ongoing anxiety and life-direction questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with worry, low mood, and anger.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean using elements from different approaches and adjusting them over time based on how well they help.
The biography notes long experience with teletherapy, but specific session formats are not listed here. Before booking, confirm the current online session options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use mindfulness and behavioral exercises between sessions as part of regular life.
