How therapy approaches translate to online care

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions this means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new ways of responding between meetings to reduce anxiety and stress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and committing to meaningful actions. Online work with ACT often includes short exercises and values-based goals that a person can try out during the week.

Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early and current relationships shape emotional responses. In virtual sessions the therapist and client talk through relationship patterns and try new ways of relating that can improve communication and connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that match a person's needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility around work, caregiving, and travel. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills together. Phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth. Live chat or messaging supports brief check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing coaching between longer appointments.
