Therapeutic approaches you can use in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values and take actions that match what matters to them. It can help with anxiety, depression, and making changes during difficult life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can help when emotions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Early sessions are used to identify priorities and try techniques to see what helps most.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for more frequent brief check-ins when helpful. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and session length so therapy can be arranged to work around work, caregiving, or other daily demands.
