How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build flexible ways to respond to uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. Online ACT sessions typically involve values work, behavioral experiments, and homework to practice new responses between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In online CBT sessions clients learn skills such as thought records, behavioral activation, and graded exposure to reduce anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Thomas collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals and situation. He adjusts techniques over time based on what helps in day-to-day life, and he combines elements from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and attachment ideas as needed.
