Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with a Licensed Professional
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed action toward those values. It supports learning to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate choices, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve functioning. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, addictions, and social phobia by teaching practical skills to change reactions and habits.
Existential Therapy explores questions of meaning, purpose, responsibility, and choice. It can be particularly helpful for clients facing midlife concerns, questions about life direction, or struggles with identity and authenticity.
