Using ACT, CBT, and DBT in online work
Jennifer commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small actions aligned with those values. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while choosing value-driven steps that improve daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test different ways of interpreting situations. CBT provides concrete exercises and short homework that help change everyday habits and reduce anxiety and low mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive reactions. DBT skills are often taught in clear, step-by-step ways that can be practiced between sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then recommend methods to try together. Adjustments are made as progress is reviewed so the plan fits the client’s life.
Confirm session formats before booking to know what online options are currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten commutes, and practice skills in real-life settings. Some formats may be better for quick check-ins while others suit longer skill-building sessions, so double-check available options when scheduling.
