How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for ongoing anger, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce distress and respond differently to triggers. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and supporting the person's own problem solving so practical goals can be set and pursued.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences together and try different strategies to see what helps most. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted based on what the client reports and how they progress.
