Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Mona Stribling

Dr. Mona Stribling integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside a client-centered stance to support change. ACT emphasizes identifying personal values and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with what matters most - it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. CBT focuses on recognizing and adjusting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, panic, and mood disorders, offering practical skills for day-to-day coping. Client-centered therapy prioritizes the person’s experience, offering empathy, validation, and collaboration to build self-understanding and self-compassion.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Dr. Stribling works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative exploration helps shape a tailored treatment plan that aligns with the client’s values and circumstances.

Online therapy with Dr. Stribling can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and access licensed professionals from a distance while working toward meaningful goals.
