Approach-driven care delivered online
Danica commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people manage thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that match those values, which can help with anger, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies for reducing anxiety, improving sleep, and changing unhelpful habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work, and Danica treats it as a collaboration. She will talk with each person about their goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That way the plan reflects the person’s needs and preferences rather than a fixed protocol.
Online sessions can fit busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls are useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can be a brief check-in or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to practice skills in real life and keep momentum between appointments.
