How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Connie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her work. ACT helps people notice what matters to them, accept difficult thoughts or feelings, and take actions that match their values. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She also draws on client-centered and mindfulness ideas to keep sessions grounded in each person's experience. Finding the right approach is part of the work together; Connie will discuss options and help decide what fits a client's goals, preferences, and needs. This is a collaborative process where methods may shift as progress is made. If you're considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Different formats can help fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions without video can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and shorter check-ins can fit into a work break. Talk with Connie about what will work with your schedule so sessions are practical and sustainable.
