Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Gail uses several evidence-informed methods to support clients online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values - it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead and fosters self-directed growth - it supports issues like self-esteem, grief, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and is commonly used for panic, social anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Gail works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and to select or adapt methods that fit their situation. This collaborative stance helps shape a treatment plan that feels relevant and achievable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles and needs. These options make it easier for adults to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations, and fit therapy into busy schedules while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor care to individual circumstances.
