How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help when someone feels stuck between choices like study, work, or relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. This is often useful for depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own perspective and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting to support self-directed goals.Finding the best approach is usually a shared process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That collaboration helps guide whether more ACT, CBT, or client-centered techniques are emphasized over time.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work shifts, and commuting. They can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or reduce the time needed to attend by removing travel. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and goal tracking to work well in remote sessions.
