Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and encourages taking values-based actions to build a meaningful life. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression, low motivation, and life transitions.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust, and works to improve ways of relating in relationships and to reduce distress linked to separation, abandonment, or intimacy concerns.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, and many day-to-day difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Renika collaborates with clients to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works alongside clients to adjust strategies over time so therapy remains focused and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and are also available via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access care around work, family, and travel, and help maintain continuity of support when life is busy or circumstances change.
