Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and encourages action guided by personal values - it can be useful for stress, anxiety, motivation, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current bonds and communication, supporting work on intimacy, family dynamics, and long-standing relationship issues. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a supportive space where clients are encouraged to lead the conversation and discover personal solutions, often helping with self-esteem, coping, and decision-making.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Elizabeth "Lizz" Benton will discuss these options with clients and adapt methods over time to suit what is most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, or mobility constraints. These formats allow people to access regular, ongoing help from licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location, while maintaining continuity of care and the ability to try different approaches as progress unfolds.
