Approaches to Growth and Support Online
Dr. Kevin Stefanek often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, then focus on values-driven steps that create a more meaningful life. ACT can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes.He also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which offers practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, performance concerns, and habits people want to change.
Client-Centered Therapy is another cornerstone of his practice, emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and respect for each person's perspective. This approach supports self-exploration, relationship concerns, self-esteem work, and coping with transitions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Stefanek works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult. These formats allow therapists to deliver the same core approaches in ways that suit each person's schedule and comfort.
