Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Leann uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered techniques to guide online work in ways that fit individual needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps aligned with personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and building practical coping skills, often applied to depression, anxiety, panic, and eating-related concerns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while they explore goals and emotions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Leann will work together with each person to determine which methods match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts techniques as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, connect from home or another convenient location, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult.
