Therapeutic approaches for online care

Janine Gonzalez uses several evidence-informed approaches that adapt well to remote work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then take actions that align with their values - it can be especially useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a nonjudgmental, empathic relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead to build insight and self-acceptance - this approach supports self-esteem, grief work, and relational struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to depression, panic, or obsessive concerns and often produces skills clients can use between sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Janine works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time to ensure a good therapeutic match.

Online therapy with Janine is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from their own communities, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and choose the format that best supports their progress.
