Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care with Allison Peck
Allison draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relationship patterns rooted in early bonds and supports people in developing safer, more connected ways of relating, useful for intimacy and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to distress, and is often effective for anxiety, mood symptoms, and practical coping skills.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Allison collaborates with each client to understand their goals, preferences, and needs, and she tailors techniques from these approaches to find the best fit rather than relying on a single method.
Online work offers practical benefits for many people - video calls and phone sessions recreate real-time conversation, live chat allows for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging can provide ongoing connection between sessions. These options increase flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to fit consistent, skilled therapeutic support into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who adapt the work to each client.
