Approaches and Access - Online Therapy with Practical Methods

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters most, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions because it emphasizes meaningful living alongside symptom management.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a nonjudgmental, empathic relationship that supports self-discovery and personal growth. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, exploring identity, and navigating relationship or career concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often effective for anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, and practical problem-solving in daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Scott-Boston works with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adapting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care around work, family, or mobility needs and allow licensed professionals to provide support from different locations while maintaining regular contact and continuity of treatment.
