How Charlotte’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Charlotte commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns. ACT helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to take actions that match their values even when emotions are strong.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She talks with each person about goals and preferences and chooses methods together. That collaborative planning helps shape sessions so they feel useful and doable for the person she is working with.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video helps with face-to-face interaction and practicing skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Chat or messaging works for brief check-ins, exercises, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum when life gets in the way.
