How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify values and commit to small behavior changes even when difficult thoughts appear. It’s often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors in daily life. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationship patterns shape current connections and can inform work on intimacy-related issues and relationship conflict.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then try methods that fit. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches as needed to address symptoms and real-life problems.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten check-ins, reduce travel time, or let someone choose audio-only conversations when bandwidth is low. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and scheduling when you begin the intake process.
