Integrative approaches for online support and healing
Samantha commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centred therapy, sometimes alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, to help people navigate emotional and relationship challenges. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and panic. Client-centred therapy emphasises a nonjudgmental, empathetic relationship that supports self-exploration and self-acceptance to improve self-esteem and relational patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and develop practical strategies to live in line with those values while managing painful emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Samantha works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and responsive.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many clients - appointments by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make scheduling more flexible and reduce the need to travel. These options can make ongoing support more accessible for people with busy lives, mobility limitations or caring responsibilities, while still allowing therapists to deliver structured, evidence-informed care.
