Online support

Using Established Approaches in Online Therapy

David blends cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy into online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, even when emotions are intense.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and life demands, then try approaches that fit. That collaborative process makes it easier to tweak methods over time so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow for short check-ins, quick skill reminders, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit around work, caregiving, or other daily responsibilities.
