Integrating proven approaches into online care

Desiree' Bridges draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients increase psychological flexibility by noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect personal values. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and standing alongside the client so they can explore goals and strengthen self-understanding. This method supports work on self-esteem, relationships, and parenting challenges.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another tool in her practice for identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills for managing mood, stress, and coping with everyday problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Desiree' works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of techniques best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules, mobility, and differing comfort levels. These options make it easier for clients to maintain continuity of care and access licensed professionals when and where it works best for them.
