Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites clients to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarify personal values and take actions that align with those values. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering practical strategies to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own perspective and pace, emphasizing empathy, active listening, and respect to support self-exploration and growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Necole works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility to meet by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or manage access from different locations. These options allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care while tailoring session formats to what feels most helpful for the individual.
