Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and develop actions that align with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and supports a person’s own capacity for growth. This approach can be especially helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening coping during life transitions and grief.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and learning practical skills to change them. It is commonly used for mood disorders, panic, and problems with anxiety.
