How these approaches fit into online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and when habitual thinking keeps someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to change how someone feels and acts. It often helps with stress, sleep, and mood problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense for their goals and preferences. Sessions can blend elements from different approaches as needed so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single technique.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten check-ins, and avoid travel time.
