Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward what matters, which can help with anxiety, ADHD-related overwhelm, and life transitions.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT offers practical exercises and homework that translate well to online sessions and can reduce symptoms of depression, panic, and mood disorders.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then try methods that fit each person's needs. That collaborative process can include mixing techniques from different models as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief coaching, quick coping strategies, and maintaining momentum between longer sessions. Overall, online options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and support steady progress.
