Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and commit to actions that align with their values. It focuses on accepting difficult feelings rather than struggling with them and can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to modify unhelpful patterns. CBT is effective for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and sleep difficulties by building concrete coping skills.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the individual by offering empathetic listening and collaborative goal setting. This approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and relationship concerns by creating a trusting therapeutic relationship.
Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic process. Licensed professionals and therapists work collaboratively with each person to identify which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and they may combine elements from different models to tailor care.
