Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Susan Rick
Susan Rick integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and client-centered principles into her online practice. ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values - it can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions.

Client-centered therapy provides a supportive, empathic environment where the therapist follows the client’s lead and emphasizes understanding and personal meaning.
