Therapeutic approaches and flexible online support
Naomi integrates evidence-based approaches into online care to meet each client's concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult thoughts and focus on meaningful actions - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to change them, making it suited to depression, anxiety, and sleep difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and a nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship so clients feel heard and supported while exploring their goals and emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Naomi works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as work progresses.
Online sessions with licensed professionals offer flexibility - appointments can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or manage mobility and geographic barriers. These options allow consistent access to care and enable therapists to use these approaches effectively across different formats.
