Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or panic. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience, with the therapist listening closely and shaping sessions around what feels most important to the client.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jodie will discuss goals and preferences with each person and combine methods that make the most sense for their situation. This is a collaborative process so adjustments can be made as progress and needs evolve.
Online work gives practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives.
