How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, accepting relationship where the person leads the conversation. It focuses on listening, reflecting feelings, and supporting a person's own decisions about change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and identifying personal values to guide action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and introduces tools to change patterns that cause distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Victoria will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. She adapts tools from these approaches so sessions match what feels most useful and manageable.
Practical benefits of online work often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Some people find it simpler to check in during a lunch break or avoid travel time. Because the therapist's supported session formats are not listed here, confirm current session options before booking to see what works best for your routine.
