Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions because it focuses on small, value-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests new ways of responding. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns to build practical coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on emotions and attachment patterns and can help with relationship and communication struggles by naming feelings and trying new interactions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Connie works with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. She treats the choice as collaborative, adjusting methods as progress and needs change.
If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Confirming options lets you plan how therapy fits into daily life. Many people find remote sessions easier to schedule around work, school, or caregiving duties. Others appreciate not needing travel time or having a shorter check-in when days are busy. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to choose an approach and a session rhythm that fit your schedule and goals.
