Approaches in Online Therapy and How They Help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take actions that align with their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions where avoidance becomes a barrier to living fully.Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that began in close relationships and how they show up in current partnerships and families. This approach helps with relationship struggles, intimacy-related concerns, and attachment issues by strengthening emotional connection and understanding.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective strategies. It is commonly used for mood and anxiety disorders, sleep difficulties, and coping with everyday challenges.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Steven works collaboratively with clients and with other licensed professionals to determine which methods best match a person’s goals, preferences, and needs, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone, as well as live chat and text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy lives and to maintain consistency even when schedules change. These options support accessibility and ongoing engagement with therapy from wherever clients are located.
