Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on actionable skills. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced thoughts to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Another approach emphasizes building coping skills and routines to manage stress, improve motivation, and strengthen self-esteem.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Anne will work with each person to review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow fuller conversational work and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins and ongoing support between appointments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and other daily responsibilities.
