Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care
Donna Kaufman draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor care to each person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings while helping clients identify values and take action toward them; it can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental stance to help people explore their own perspective and build self-esteem and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and developing practical skills to change unhelpful responses, often used for anxiety, low mood, and motivation challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Donna works collaboratively with clients to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may blend elements of different methods to match what feels most useful.
Online therapy with Donna is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and fitting support into daily life. These remote options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals and maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
