How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT typically involves practical exercises and simple experiments to change how thoughts influence feelings and behavior, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and committing to action that aligns with personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods over time so the plan fits how you like to learn and change. That collaboration helps shape what techniques are used in sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face for skill practice and role plays. Phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick support, tracking progress, or sending short reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity across distance.
