Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Margot Williams

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that support a meaningful life. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with ongoing emotional pain.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust. This approach can assist with relationship difficulties, family separation concerns, and issues related to attachment and belonging.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s lead, highlights strengths, and supports self-directed growth. It is especially helpful for people seeking collaborative, strengths-based care.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Margot works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexible ways to engage in care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or other commitments and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult.
