Applying ACT and CBT in Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, low motivation, and managing painful emotions by shifting focus toward meaningful behavior.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. By practicing new ways of thinking and testing them in everyday situations, clients often gain tools to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and some stress-related issues.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work and is treated as a collaborative process. Thomas draws on ACT and CBT as starting points and partners with clients to tailor techniques to each person s needs, goals, and preferences so the plan fits their life and priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from home, during work breaks, or while traveling. These options make it easier to keep momentum between sessions, practice new skills in real time, and fit therapy into a busy schedule.
