Therapeutic approaches and online care
Melissa integrates several proven methods to guide online work with clients. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward a life that matters to them - it is often useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical strategies for mood, anxiety, and sleep-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and stress-reduction practices that support emotional regulation and improved focus.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Melissa collaborates with each person to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time to ensure the work stays relevant and effective.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for those balancing work, family, or mobility limitations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity through life changes and to access therapists and licensed professionals from a familiar setting, while preserving the structure and skill-building focus of traditional therapy.
