Therapeutic approaches for flexible online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clients to clarify their values and take meaningful action while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early attachments influence current emotional responses - this approach can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment issues, and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours through practical exercises and structured strategies, which is effective for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping skills development.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sayem works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts techniques over time to ensure the approach remains relevant and helpful.
