Approaches and online support for personal growth

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is useful for clients dealing with anxiety, avoidance, or life transitions who want to build a more value-driven life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often effective for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns by teaching practical skills for managing symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, empathic relationship in which the therapist offers understanding and unconditional positive regard to help clients explore their goals and strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. As a licensed professional, Brianna Gaines works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, or other commitments while still accessing regular support from a trained therapist.
