Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them. It helps people who feel stuck or unsure about purpose and who want to act in ways that match what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal interactions, which can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Dayna treats the choice as a collaboration - she listens to goals and preferences, explains options, and tries different techniques until something feels useful. The plan can change over time as needs do.

Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility to practice tools between sessions and to keep continuity when schedules or location change.
