Therapeutic Approaches Delivered Online
Patricia uses several evidence-informed approaches that translate well to online formats. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and develop psychological flexibility - teaching practical skills to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings while pursuing meaningful goals. It can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and low mood.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection formed in early relationships and how those patterns affect current relationships and self-worth. This approach can support work on abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, and relational difficulties by exploring interpersonal needs and strengthening secure ways of relating.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured strategies to identify negative thinking patterns and build new coping skills. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management and can provide concrete techniques for changing behavior and improving mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Patricia works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time so the plan evolves with the client.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, reduce travel barriers, and allow consistent access to care from home or other convenient locations. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact with a licensed professional while tailoring communication styles to what feels most comfortable for the client.
