Approaches for Attachment, Growth, and Practical Online Support

Anicia often integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address challenges common in early parenthood and family life. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early caregiving connections shape current relationships and helps repair bonding and trust issues. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client's perspective, offering empathetic, nonjudgmental listening so individuals can discover their own solutions and build self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing concrete coping skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Anicia collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds so the work remains practical and personally meaningful.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow for flexibility and easier scheduling around caregiving and work demands. These formats make ongoing support more accessible, help maintain continuity during life transitions, and enable licensed professionals and therapists to deliver consistent care in ways that fit a client’s daily routine.
