Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Leila draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward a more meaningful life; ACT is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and to support healing from abandonment, communication problems, and attachment issues; this approach can be useful for improving emotional connection and relational stability. Additionally, Leila incorporates Client-Centered Therapy principles, offering a compassionate, nonjudgmental stance that prioritizes the client s own goals and perspectives.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Leila approaches this collaboratively, helping clients determine which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the process remains suited to each person s circumstances and progress.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter interactions are possible via live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to access support around work, caregiving and other commitments while maintaining continuity of care and therapeutic momentum.
