Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, while focusing on actions that align with personal values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and issues that interfere with motivation and well-being. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to build coping skills for daily challenges. The Gottman Method provides structured tools to improve communication, resolve conflict, and strengthen emotional connection within couples by teaching practical skills for relationship repair and growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Tamar collaborates with each person or couple to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. This collaborative process may combine elements from different approaches to meet evolving needs.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access licensed professionals from different locations. For many clients, these remote formats increase consistency of care and allow therapists to work with clients in ways that suit their routines and comfort levels.
