How his approaches work online and what to expect
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to the client's needs. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify values and goals to guide each session. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to accept difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with sleep issues, mood disturbances, impulsivity, and coping skills for stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, reviewing how they feel, and adjusting the plan together.
