How his approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation.

Figuring out the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce time spent traveling. Online meetings can make it simpler to maintain continuity between sessions and to practice skills in everyday settings. The therapist will discuss what will work best for scheduling and how to structure sessions around your life.
