How Hunter works
Together they set realistic goals and pick small steps that build confidence. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings as well as talking through painful events. Her work draws on approaches that teach new ways to manage thoughts and feelings.
She uses exercises that help people notice what matters to them and act on those values. She also helps people practice coping skills for intense emotions and habits that get in the way of daily life. Hunter often helps people untangle difficult thoughts about the self and relationships.
She pays attention to patterns that keep problems repeating and helps clients test new behaviors. The emphasis is on clear, doable strategies rather than long lectures. People who meet with Hunter can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk.

Online support options
Online therapy approaches and practical options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with personal values so they can take meaningful action. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and struggles with motivation or self-criticism. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and then practicing new, healthier responses; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and some habit-based difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to reduce intense reactions and improve relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Hunter will collaborate to figure out which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions include checking what helps and adapting techniques as progress is made so the plan stays aligned with the client’s priorities.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper weekly sessions, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can fit short check-ins or days when a person prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to schedule consistent meetings and to practice new skills between sessions.
