Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Sam integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy into her practice. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and build psychological flexibility so they can live more in line with what matters to them - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed in early life and how those patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses - it is often helpful for intimacy issues, family conflict, and trauma-related attachment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process, and Sam works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances. She adapts techniques and pace so the plan reflects the client's needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, the ability to receive care from different locations, and multiple ways to engage with therapy that suit different communication styles and life demands.
