Therapeutic approaches offered through online care



Martha integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports living in alignment with personal values when coping with issues like anxiety or grief. Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s perspective guides the sessions; it is often helpful for relationship concerns and exploring personal strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them, which can assist with depression, anxiety, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Martha collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as the work progresses to ensure a good match.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or life events intervene, and access licensed professionals from home or another convenient location.
