Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Alana uses evidence-informed approaches to guide online sessions so clients can work on practical changes from wherever they are. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports developing actions that align with personal values - it is often used for stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms related to anxiety, depression and coping challenges. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports personal growth and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alana works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as goals evolve so the work remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Alana is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and choose a communication style that feels most helpful for each client.
