Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to values-driven actions. It emphasizes accepting difficult emotions while building practical skills to pursue what matters, often supporting work on anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s goals and experiences at the center of care; the therapist listens, reflects, and follows the client’s lead to foster insight, self-acceptance, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and replacing them with more helpful strategies, making it useful for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Randall McBride works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor treatment to the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make scheduling more flexible and reduce travel time. These formats can help people access consistent care around work, family, or mobility constraints, while allowing therapists to use the same evidence-informed interventions they use in person to support change and coping.
