How her approaches fit online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it focuses on small, concrete steps that can be practiced between sessions.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages people to clarify their values and take action toward them even when emotions are difficult. ACT can help with stress, codependency patterns, and making decisions that match what matters most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process means approaches can shift over time if something is not working as hoped.
