Integrative Approaches for Remote Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what matters most to them and build practical steps toward a values-driven life. It focuses on increasing psychological flexibility and is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy, trust, and communication. It can be especially useful for couples, family concerns, adoption or foster care issues, and people processing abandonment or attachment difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Chetram works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best align with their goals, needs, and preferences. She blends techniques when appropriate and adapts plans over time based on client feedback and progress.
