Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care
Jena Ourso draws from several evidence-informed approaches to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then identify personal values and commit to actions that align with those values - often useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding patterns that developed in early relationships and how those patterns affect current connections; it can be helpful for relationship struggles, parenting challenges, abandonment issues, and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) centers on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and building practical skills to address mood disorders, anxiety, and everyday coping needs.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jena works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. They tailor interventions and adjust the plan as needed to fit the client’s progress and feedback.
Online therapy offers flexible options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules, reach people in different locations across Louisiana, and maintain continuity when life changes arise. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver focused, structured work while adapting pace and tools to individual needs.
