Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and commit to actions that align with what matters most. It is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and patterns that block meaningful living.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current emotional patterns and interpersonal dynamics. This approach can be especially helpful for relationship concerns, abandonment or attachment issues, and family or caregiving dynamics.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist supports the client's self-exploration and personal growth. It is well suited to individuals seeking a collaborative, empathetic space to address grief, identity, or life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself. Dr. Martin-Perkins works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to identify which methods best fit each person’s goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to connect from different locations. These formats offer flexibility in timing and communication style while allowing therapists to provide consistent, ongoing care that supports recovery and growth.
