Evidence-Informed Approaches and Flexible Online Sessions
Robyn Scher integrates several evidence-based approaches into her practice to address emotional and practical challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect their values - it can be useful for living with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the relationships between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms such as low mood or anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can help with intense emotions and interpersonal difficulties.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative part of the therapeutic process. Robyn works with each person to understand their priorities, goals, and preferences, and together they decide which methods and exercises best support progress. This shared planning helps tailor sessions to what will be most helpful for the individual.
Online therapy with Robyn is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, during breaks, or while managing caregiving and work commitments, allowing therapy to fit more naturally into daily life.
