Therapeutic approaches for online care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarify personal values and take small committed actions toward a more meaningful life. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation struggles.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low self-esteem, and managing compulsive or addictive behaviors.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship that helps people feel heard and understood while they explore their goals and strengths. This approach supports work on self-esteem, parenting concerns, and relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Coble works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors interventions accordingly, combining techniques as appropriate to support progress.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or manage care from different locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured therapy, skills coaching, and ongoing support without the need for in-person visits, increasing accessibility and convenience for clients.
