Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Carol brings several evidence-informed approaches to online work, adapting methods to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed steps toward those values while learning to respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and the therapist’s genuine presence, creating space for clients to explore their experiences and find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Carol works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She tailors interventions over time so the work stays relevant and effective.
Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexible ways to engage in therapy from home or other convenient locations. These options can make regular attendance easier, allow for more timely check-ins, and support continuity of care when schedules or geography make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to support meaningful progress and practical coping in everyday life.
