Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that align with their values. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, low motivation, and life transitions by helping clients build psychological flexibility.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships that shape how people connect, trust, and handle intimacy. This approach is useful for relationship challenges, abandonment concerns, and difficulties rooted in early caregiving experiences.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Bernadette works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses so that clients feel supported and understood by a licensed professional.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone make it easier to meet from home, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options for more immediate or brief check-ins. These formats help people maintain continuity of care around work, family, and other commitments, and allow therapists to tailor communication styles to each client’s comfort and needs.
