Therapy approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward a life that matters to them; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaching practical skills to change them. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, reflecting, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as work deepens or goals change, and decisions are made collaboratively in session.

Session format details should be confirmed before booking, since specific options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce commuting, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand. It can also let people continue consistent work while managing health, caregiving, or work obligations. Ask about current session formats when you schedule so you can pick times that fit your routine.
