How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making changes that matter. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches clear skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and handling stress in the moment. It works well for anger, mood swings, and overwhelming reactions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, focuses on processing past traumatic memories so they cause less distress in daily life and can be used when trauma memories are a central issue.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to figure out which methods fit best based on goals, symptoms, and what feels most useful in day-to-day life. Plans can change as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing, shorter exchanges between sessions. These options help therapy fit into busy schedules and different routines.
