Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people focus on values and small steps toward a life they care about. It uses practical exercises to notice thoughts and commit to actions that reflect what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and respect for the client's pace, helping people feel heard while they explore changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claudette will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean combining ACT, CBT, and client-centered techniques across sessions and homework so the plan fits an individual's life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet: video calls for deeper conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, maintain momentum between sessions, and try skills in real life while getting timely guidance.
