Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Christina Gonzalez integrates evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on personal values and committed action - it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how those patterns shape current connections, which can be helpful for relationship concerns, abandonment issues, and attachment-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Gonzalez works with each person to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so the plan feels practical and responsive to progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from home, while accommodating work, family, and geographic constraints, and support ongoing continuity of care when in-person visits are not feasible.
