Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Jo Anna Mendoza
Jo Anna integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered techniques to tailor treatment to each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to acknowledge difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action - an approach often used for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical strategies to shift them, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and self-esteem concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard so clients can explore experiences and build self-understanding; this approach can support relationship issues, grief, and identity-related concerns.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative work. Jo Anna will discuss these methods with each client, consider their goals and preferences, and adapt techniques to fit the situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all plan. The process is guided by client needs and paced to what feels manageable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, and geographic constraints, and they allow clients to engage in therapy from environments that feel most comfortable. As a licensed professional, Jo Anna works with clients to choose the format and rhythm of sessions that best support progress.
