Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care
Valerie Jackson integrates approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to meet each person's needs. ACT emphasizes identifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility so clients can take meaningful action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings arise - it is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports self-discovery, useful for building self-esteem and improving relationships. CBT offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jackson works with clients to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and strengths, adjusting strategies over time so therapy remains responsive and relevant. Licensed professionals guide the process and tailor interventions to each person.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - increase flexibility and make it easier to fit care into busy lives. These formats support consistent access to therapy across different schedules and locations, allowing clients to maintain progress and use timely skills between sessions.
