Approaches that guide online therapy and remote support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking practical steps toward a more meaningful life, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting in close relationships. It aims to strengthen emotional bonds and improve communication, making it especially helpful for relationship, intimacy, and family concerns.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the person’s own goals guide the work. This approach supports self-exploration and builds confidence in making changes, and it pairs well with other techniques when addressing trauma, stress, or identity issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process, and the therapist works collaboratively with people to identify methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try approaches and adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clear.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support across distances. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and communication style, allowing people to choose ways of working that feel most comfortable and practical for them.
