Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to take actions that align with their values - an approach that can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and building practical skills to change them, which often benefits anxiety, depression, and problems related to addiction. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and a nonjudgmental stance, creating space for individuals to explore grief, relationship concerns, and self-esteem issues.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Dr. Tammy Occhipinti collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress unfolds so the approach stays aligned with what the client finds most helpful.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility and accessibility by providing sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to continue care during transitions, and to receive support from locations that work best for the individual.
