Approaches and Options for Online Therapeutic Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress by building practical skills to shift automatic reactions and improve daily functioning.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and develop psychological flexibility. It encourages acceptance of difficult emotions while taking committed action toward a meaningful life, which can be useful for coping with grief, trauma, and chronic stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. These tools can support people dealing with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or patterns of impulsive behavior.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anjanette works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and to tailor techniques that fit the individual. She helps clients try approaches and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity across locations, and access consistent care from licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel.
