Approaches and Online Options for Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and persistent stress by teaching ways to act despite difficult emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to reduce intense emotions and improve how someone manages relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Negron will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then together with the client will tailor methods to fit those needs. The process is collaborative, with choices revisited as progress is made.
Online therapy in this practice is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to use formats that match personal comfort and practical needs.
