Online support options
Evidence-based approaches for online care
Emily often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of online work. ACT helps people clarify values and commit to actions that match those values, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and finding direction. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors, which helps with anxiety, depression, and managing impulsive reactions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Emily will listen to your goals and try methods that match what you want to change. Together you will adjust techniques over time so the work fits your needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you have a fuller conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat or text messaging are useful for quick check-ins and shorter exchanges. These options let people keep therapy going around work, family, or other commitments while focusing on practical skills and steady progress.
