Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying what matters most and taking committed steps toward those values, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a skills-based approach that looks at patterns of thought and behavior. Clients learn concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and build better habits for sleep, eating, and daily routine challenges.
Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional reactions and intimacy. It can help people improve communication and change repeating relationship cycles.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Connie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. She adapts methods collaboratively so sessions match the client’s needs and pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and deeper discussion. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, quick coaching, or when written reflection feels easier than speaking. These formats help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain steady progress.
