Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Georgiana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT focuses on concrete skills such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and problem-solving that can reduce anxiety, manage depression, and address addictive patterns.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without judgment and taking actions that align with personal values. ACT can help when people feel stuck by avoidance or overwhelming emotion. Mindfulness techniques are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stressors.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Georgiana will talk through a person’s goals, needs, and preferences and tailor techniques from these methods accordingly. Together they set achievable steps and review progress along the way.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use written tools when that fits their schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while using the same therapeutic tools as in person.
