Integrating Therapeutic Approaches in Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and learn practical ways to take meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where avoidance has become limiting. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns influence present-day connections and emotional safety, and can be particularly helpful for relationship struggles, intimacy issues, and healing from abandonment or attachment wounds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches concrete strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build healthier habits, often supporting work with depression, anxiety, and mood regulation.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Clark works with each person to evaluate goals, preferences, and practical needs and then tailors techniques from these approaches to fit the client’s life. The aim is to find strategies that feel relevant, manageable, and effective over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care during life changes, while still enabling regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists focused on meaningful progress.
