Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build psychological flexibility by combining acceptance strategies with committed action. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating formed in early relationships and how those patterns influence current connections; it can be helpful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a non-directive, empathic stance in which the therapist provides understanding and unconditional regard to help clients explore their feelings and find their own solutions, supporting self-esteem and personal growth.

Corina approaches treatment collaboratively - she and each client work together to choose the methods that best fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Over the course of sessions she adapts techniques and integrates different approaches when that will better support progress.

Online therapy with Corina offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, or geographic constraints. This range of formats allows licensed professionals to tailor the pace and style of therapeutic work while helping clients access support from wherever they are.
