How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness to help manage strong emotions and improve communication.Finding the right approach is a process. The therapist will work together with the person to identify which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That collaborative conversation guides session focus, whether the emphasis is on skill practice, exploring relationship patterns, or changing day-to-day behaviors.
The original biography did not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for continuity of care during life transitions. It also supports using worksheets, in-session coaching, and skill practice between meetings so work done in therapy can be applied to everyday life.
