Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Aubrey often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying values and taking small steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic health issues.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a skills-based method that looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many daily problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aubrey collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they try strategies and adjust the plan over time to find what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and conversation. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share updates, get brief support between sessions, or have more flexible contact during the week. These options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into busy lives while keeping the focus on practical work and steady progress.
