Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that match their values. It is often used for stress, anxiety, life transitions, and problems with motivation. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can speak freely and make their own choices. It supports self-acceptance and helps people explore their goals and identity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yanlin will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That might mean combining values-focused ACT with client-centered listening and some mindfulness or somatic techniques depending on goals and comfort level.
