Therapeutic approaches for online support and care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and in identifying values-based actions that move life forward. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and persistent patterns that interfere with daily living.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and connection to others. It aims to increase awareness of attachment dynamics and build more secure ways of relating, which can benefit individuals working through relationship challenges, abandonment concerns, or family of origin issues.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to help people process distressing memories and the emotions tied to them. In sessions, a therapist guides structured processing that many people find useful when addressing trauma and abuse-related symptoms.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Jessica works collaboratively with people to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and comfort. She and the client review progress and adjust the plan as needed so the work remains relevant and effective.
Online therapy offers practical benefits like greater scheduling flexibility and easier access to licensed professionals. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, therapists can maintain an ongoing therapeutic connection while accommodating different communication preferences and life demands.
