Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Heather Pantalone
Heather often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside cognitive behavioral techniques to address a range of life challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and it supports movement toward values-based action - useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotion regulation - helpful for relationship concerns, intimacy issues, and wounds from attachment disruptions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning - it is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and coping skills development.Finding the best therapeutic approach is an ongoing, collaborative process. Heather works with each person to clarify goals, try methods that fit their preferences, and adjust strategies based on what proves most helpful. This partnership helps tailor care to individual needs rather than prescribing a single method up front.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life changes. Working remotely with licensed professionals can increase access to consistent, goal-oriented support while allowing people to engage in therapy from locations that work best for them.
