Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings show up. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and shifting patterns that keep someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and skill practice. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problems with motivation.Jacqueline will work together with each person to find the best fit among these approaches. That means discussing goals, trying strategies, and adjusting the plan based on what feels useful. The choice of method is a shared decision and can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for people who prefer written interaction, need quick reflection between sessions, or want to pace their responses. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and other responsibilities while working on practical skills and emotional change.
