Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward a meaningful life. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and challenges that involve avoidance or persistent worry.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns of relating, trust, and emotional regulation. This approach can be useful for people working through abandonment concerns, relationship difficulties, and long-standing patterns of connection and distance.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with more adaptive skills. CBT is commonly applied to stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and problems that respond well to structured skill-building.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Coleen works with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and receive support from a distance while working on practical strategies and coping skills.
